Throttle set up help

I am putting a 4 barrel edelbrock carb on my 250 L6. My question is what kind of throttle seat up and gas pedal do I need? Can I use the stock set up? If so how? If not what do you recomend?

Re: Throttle set up help

Currently have the rod set up on the 1 barrel. I'm thinking of switch to a cable. I'm new at this and don't know which would be better. Not sure which way to set carb yet. And I will be getting the Clifford Performance single four barrel intake and shorty headers by weeks end.

I think the clifford lets you mount your carb either way and has a heat plate built in. You'll need heat to your manifold or it will run like a dog!!
Here's some pics of mine with a holley 350 2 barrel and Offy intake with Langdon's heat plate and headers. It's on my 65 c10's 230.
