I've got a AED on my car as well with the Victor Jr. If you find the part numbers shoot them to me if you don't care.
When you guys put the new cable in did you go from the pedal all the way to the carb?

helped mine wonders.
its all a fresh setup, but at least its not cruising in the 10's anymore.
would dip into the 9's at time. ive been playing with it, but i need some air bleeds to go any further.
ive got it in the high 12's-low 13's on the wideband right now.

1Quick, what front drive are you using?
I thought somebody made and adapter/spacer to rotate a 4150 card sideways?
Ive already got a nice 4150 I'd like to use, and I can see it will be tough to make fit. Any thoughts? Maybe I'll just have to fab one up when I get home if I can't find anything in production.

I had a NOS Powershot kit on there and had just enough room to get a breather on top. I don't know how tall the powershot plate is though.
I thought I had a picture of it but I must not.

I think the "LS1" cable has LS1 specific fitting for the throttle body so it will not work with a carb or 4BBL throttle body. Get the Universal 36" cable and cut it down to your length. Be ready to modify the throttle pedal also; the Lokar has a funky looking pedal attachment that is nothing like stock.

I have a 02 camaro that has a ZZ4 crate engine.I orderd a throttle cable for a 85 S-10 with a 2.8 V6.I use a quadrajet carb.I use a throttle cable bracket off a 79 corvette for a quadrajet.I did have to drill a hole in the throttle lever on carb though.But if works pefect and looks stock.the throttle cable is still available at gm dealers.

I think the one I pulled out of the junk yard was just at 24". I had some room to spare when I put it on but it works pretty damn good. The car should be down here in a week and I'll get some pics of the cable/linkage up

We used an universal lokar cable when setting up my car. 4150 here, AED throttle bracket and universal lokar cable trimmed to fit.
Andd in that pic the throttle cable isn't even in the car yet. DOH! Too many pics of the car. I'll get one later.
