throttle cable to carb hookup

I need some help in hooking up my throttle cable, tv cable and cruise control cable to my carb. Is there a kit or something I can buy for the side of the carb, its a holley 600 vacuum sec. electric choke on top of a edelbrock performer air gap. I plan on putting a spacer in between the two. Do I need to buy another bracket for the tv cable to adjust the geometry. I have the factory bracket that was bolted to the intake on the tbi. Any help/picts/links is appreciated thanks in advance.
btw its a 92 25th anniversary idk if that matters

Re: throttle cable to carb hookup

You'll need a geometry corrector bracket that bolts to the carb and the TV cable hooks onto (I used the TCI bracket https://www.summitracing.com/parts/tci-376715/overview/ ). Without this, the cable won't actuate the valve in the transmission correctly.


I haven't messed with the factory TBI bracket, so I am not sure if that can be modified to work with the Holley and the Air Gap. Hopefully someone else will chime in.

To keep the 700R4 happy I would contact holley, tell them your set up, and they can help you. you can burn up a 700R4 quick without the TV cable hooked up with the correct geometry.
