View attachment 371231 I've just started viewing this site. Love it, and especially this section. I am working on a '64 Fury Convertible that originally was powered by a 318 Poly motor. I purchased Schumacher engine swap mounts to mount the 440 RB motor that's currently installed. The engine is almost ready to fire for the first time. I am running an Edelbrock CH4B manifold and Holley Carb (850 now, will change to 750 once running). My issue is the original throttle cable is about (see photo) that much too short. Where can I purchase an original style cable to fit this set up? Do I need one for a big block car? I do not want to aftermarket if at all possible. I have used Lokar in the past with good luck, but I want this one to look OE. Thanks View attachment 371230 View attachment 371230

That's a good idea. I may give this a try first. Thank you. TomOr...you can fab up an extension plate to go on your cable housing clamp...extending the distance the cable housing reaches to the carb. This is what I did when switching from 2bbl to 4 bbl on my poly. Used some metal stock I had laying around.
Thank you for this. I just ordered one.Pictured is aforementioned Holley 20-7 throttle cable adapter, it's about $10. Also the throttle cable mounting bracket is a Mancini piece they make specifically for high rise manifolds. Pictured is a 69 B Body 383 View attachment 371426 RR, but hope it helps.
