MPFI to Carb throttle cable

I also have a v6 mpfi 5-speed car that I bought in the middle of a 350/700-r4 swap(fun stuff). It appears to have a 650 edelbrock carb (probably from pepboys or the like) and I cant seem to figure out how to get the TV cable hooked up correctly. Im on a bit of a budget so i wouldnt be opposed to making a bracket or something along those lines. I would just like a little more info before i start (ie. where cable hooks to carb, finding proper geometry?, how to adjust cable with homemade bracket).

Welcome aboard thirdgen.org.

I moved this to its own thread, since it really wasn't related to the one where you posted it.

You need to get a cable housing mount bracket, and a TV geometry corrector bracket that attaches to the throttle arm. I wouldn't recommend homemade, especially for the geometry corrector bracket.
