I just picked up a Funnelweb for my 351c and I was wondering what the best way to hook up my throttle cable was? It doesn't have the provisions for the bolt on bracket, so I'm guessing I will have to make something. Or is there a bracket out there that will bolt up?------------------

I would buy the plate that fits under the carb. That's what I did for my Strip Dominator.

Use the Lokar Kit. Its a nice looking setup and you can use the Kickdown kit with a non-Ford carb. I used it on my strip dominator, mighty demon carb and C4 transmission. Go to www.lokar.com Here is a link to a photo of what it will look like. http://www.lokar.com/interior_pages/products/mounting_brackets/images/b_mount.jpg

I used the Lokar cables and mount. Worked fine.  ------------------

Cool, I really like that setup. I all ready have the Lokar kickdown. But does Lokar make a throttle cable that hooks to my stock accelerator pedal? I'd really like to get that set up. ------------------

I drilled out the hole in my gas pedal to allow the piece on the Lokar cable to go into it, and it works just fine.  ------------------

Thanks guys, I ordered the Lokar bracket and throttle cable. Hope it installs as simple as it looks in your pictures. I'm really looking forward to this new combo.------------------
