What kit is that(application)? i need to get the throttle cable mount like you have to use my cruise the one that came with my 04 gto kit looks nothing like that and I'm not sure where it mounts.. also did you fab up that mount for the lokar (i have that same cable in mine)

yeah mine is a GTO kit too and that is a lokar cable but as you know the stock cable mounting bracket will not work (at least not with the holley tb). I just made the bracket today that the cable is bolted too and then it is bolted to the SC. You can still see the stock bracket to the left (which is staying because I would need to move the shaft). The one made is lined up perfect with the TB. You can hardly see the new bracket but I think I still may get it polished. Or I add drive by wire???

I also don't like the meth solonoid zip tied to the tank bracket so I am going to mount it bewtween the pump and tank.
