Please please please help me!

Does anybody have any suggestions for the best way to make the throttle cable work / travel and function properly on a right hand drive conversion.

Photo's / illustrations and ALL suggestions would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!

My head hurts thinking about it!

Thanks in advance,

You will need a RHD cable, and the cable will run from the firewall across the top of the cam boxes to a bracket (varies depending on what kind of carby/ies you are running). Shouldn't be difficult as long as you can procure/make the brackets. This was the arrangement used on RHD coupes. I don't have any photos at present but will hopefully be replacing the clutch cable on one of my Coupes this weekend so will take photos if I remember.

G'day Charles, I posted a pic of SPYDUH's twin carb setup in the other thread on 'Engines', but here's a shot of her before she went with twins. The green cable is the throttle cable.



Here's a different twin carb set up that I use on the coupe, it's a simple home-made bracket attached to the cam box to hold the end of the cable. I hope this helps you out.
