Modifying Throttle linkage??

I just installed a Edelbrock Performer Carb manifold and the TBI sits higher and farther back on the new manifold as opposed to the stock one. Right now the TV cable is really loose with no tension on it. What can I do to fix this cable a long with the rest of the linkage?

Thanks
Jason

Id imagine Edelbrock makes a throttle cable for a carbed car, I'd check that out Im running one they make for Vortec manifolds. Other than that, if your adjuster isnt all the way back that can help, too. Read the tech article on that on the front page.
