FI v6 to carb v8 throttle linkage
I'm looking into doing a possible 2.8 fi to carb v8 swap. I have a v8 donor car (the car in sig). How hard is it to make the throttle linkage work right if I were to swap the v8 for the 6?

2.8 carbed cable won't work on a carbed V8, though (I understand that wasn't the question here).
I think I'd still go for V8 throttle and TV cables.

The one in the V6 car will work. I am using the V6 cable on my carb'ed V8.
