Attached at the trans end, with a new conical screw. I re-used the cover, one of the few original parts in OK shape.

Thanks, guys. And thanks again to my son, who came to visit and is willing to help. He has dreams of restoring a 356 and/or MG B. Could be next.

Here's my new routing for the accelerator cable, so it comes up near engine-center.

And here's my mods of the cable end: I trimmed about an inch from the nylon center sheath, and about 3/4 inch from the rigid end so it does not project from the pulley.

And here's the cable connected to the pulley, with good clearance. That right rear corner of the engine compartment is getting busy. Note the bundles of cables in vinyl sheaths in the body clip on the left.

I also connected the gas tank evaporation system hoses. I think I got the right flow direction (out of the charcoal canister).

The line that goes to the front connects to the port on the sheet metal, to provide "high" pressure air. I will route the other line to the left side air filter.
