Accelerator rod to cable?

I have a 68 with a rod from the accelerator pedal linkage to the carb. I would like to replace it with the later style 69-72 cable setup. I have all the components, but the cab fire wall does not seem correct. Will this work or are the cab different?

I'd go with Rockcrln's pedal adapter setup. Easy install. Looks very clean.
