What would you need to do swap from a throttle rod to a cable? Has anyone done this?

Thanks

i am pretty sure its just a pedal that bolts to the fire wall in the same spot as you existing pedal, then a cable that hooks to the top of pedal that you would need to cut a hole in the fire wall, and a bracket on the intake............i think
