Default Mustang guys step in

I have a few questions for the stang guys. Just swapped a 6.0 into a notch. It's carbed with a th400. Was wondering what the carbed guys do for a throttle cable? And what tranny cooler to run and where to mount it?
Thanks

Any lokar cable should work. I mounted my cooler in front of the radiator and put a small 8" fan on it so that it would push through the cooler and radiator.

+1 on the cable!
I've got a buddy who is running an F350 trans cooler just ran lines to it from his built 4r70w.
That cooler is huge though easily a foot in length if not better but that is the cheap way to do it.
And mounted it to your radiator..

I have the stock 5.0 cable. I mounted my tranny cooler behind the fiberglass bumper. I used sheet metal screws to attach brackets I made at work
