How in the heck do I install this throttle Cable?

I boughty a Lokar "TPI throttle cable" for my 91 formula from summit. Neither end of the cable looks anything like what I need to connect it to either the accelerator pedal assembly or the throttle body. The instruction say basically "hook it up", not very specific. It does say that the aluminum assembly that is bolted on to the one end (the loop in the picture) is for early TPI, and includes a little deal that is supposedly for later tpi. I should take a pic of that too, but is it basically a little brass cylinder that clamp/bolts to the cable
Any help would be appreciated

The early TPI loop slips over the lug on the throttle bracket and is retained with a c-clip.

The late TPI will clamp onto the cable at the proper length (slightly longer for your case) and simply slides into the side of the throttle cable cam. The angle of the cable is what retains it.

Did you also get the Lokar bracket? I'm curious of what the 3-post looks like, but I've only seen the 2-post so far..
