Check the pic in post #2.

The slotted one is the cruise control cable.

Re: cable attach point.....

You can either buy a throttle cable that matches the carb, or buy a ball stud that matches your cable. Your call, whichever you can get easier & cheaper.

Here's a little better picture of my latest arrangement.

Still not sure what you mean by "slotted".

That's a Holley 650 CFM double pumper 6210 spreadbore. The throttle arm is identical to the 4776 650 DP I have on the 396 (although nothing much remains from the 4776). I used a Summit corrector bracket for the TV cable.

Engine details in sig.

Running it with a CC distributor, by the way. Not sure if anyone else had done that yet.
