Can anyone tell me what throttle cable to order for my car?
Carbed 2.7 conversion with the bellcrank on the tranny type of linkage. I'm assuming that there are 2 cables involved so info on both would be appreciated. |

is it a stock 914/6 bellcrank in the stock 914/6 location?
then you just need to order the stock 914/6 throttle cable. its only one cable because from the bell crank up to the carb is supposed to be a 914/6 rigid rod that connects the 2nd half of the equation. brant |

You got the car from Root....he made the bellcrank assy to fit on the ring & pinion housing of the tranny so it would use a stock /4 throttle cable.
If the bellcrank is mounted to the intermediate plate on the tranny, it is a /6 setup and takes a /6 throttle cable. |

It's mounted on the right side plate where the drive flange is...

Allan,
is the bellcrank bolted to the tranny case? or does it literally screw into the tranny case? brant |

Bellcrank is bolted (via the existing cover studs) to about the 10 O' Clock position on the cover.

That's the one.
This is good news since a /6 cable runs over $80.00 and I can get a /4 cable for $40.00. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

okee dokeee...
so the answer as to which cable to buy probably depends upon the attatchment point of the bellcrank... Look at the lever arm of the crank that goes to the throttle cable (not the carb end) If its a ball type attatchment then that is 914/6 hardware. If it accepts the threaded rod of a stock -4 then probably I would get the stock -4 cable. brant |
