Installing the kit & would like some close up pics of where it goes into the firewall to the pedal
Will be pulling stock pedal off tomorrow to remove the boot & rod & I think there's a ball stud on the stick pedal in which the cable hooks too?
Seems there should be something in the firewall to keep it from rubbing ??

Also how do you properly adjust the cable ? I assume it's adjusted at the Throttle body end ?

Any pics help Thaxs

How did this go? Did you get a chance to work on it?
If not, then back to the top for you and hopefully someone can post up pictures.

I have not figured out how to secure tin through the firewall properly or adjust it

Did it not come with basic instructions for install?
Do you have the upper plenum (if EFI) off?
The kit should have come with offset square washers

So I pulled off the pedal & the little metal gasket looking piece that has 2 holes on it . There are 2 square ish , wedge type washers in the kit , I put one on each side of the hole in that small metal gasket then tighten a regular nut More less so the square wedge nuts act like a spacer on each side of the cable

Does my picture look remotely close to how this is supposed to hook up ?

can you add/use a fender washer or two to hold it to the firewall with the larger hole?
