Edelbrock carb/intake 71 72 cable throttle, stock bracket doesnt fit alum intake? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have edelbrock alum. intake and carb.

I just swapped to the 71 72 cable throttle so far I like it, I just need to make/buy a nice bracket that bolts to the intake manifold (stock one doesnt fit the edelbrock, just q jet intakes I suppose)

Can a few folks post their throttle cable brackets (homade, store bought, from another vehicle etc)

I cut welded mine up, it works but aint pretty lol

Check Summit Racing. Lokar makes a bracket that mounts accelerator cables and kickdown cables. It's nice.

summit has a lot of throttle/throttle kickdown brackets that are really cheap from 10-50 bucks.
