throttle and tv cables for carb.

If I switched to a carb setup from tune port will I need different throttle and tv cables? If so what kind?

I am in that process right now and am kinda wondering the same thing but I am not sure yet I will know here in a week or so when I have a chance to work on the car. I am thinking yes I am going to have to go to an aftermarket cable but not really sure. There is someone that sells kits for swaps like that but I cannot remember the name we have bought stuff like that for cars that we have done at the shop but I will have to look on who makes them.

Find carb cables. Not too hard to do. Or, TBI are also shorter than TPI and can be made to work.

To go with your new cables, I'm running holley's 700r4 tv corrector bracket and throttle brackets on my 650 DP.


if you're running an edelbrock, i'd also suggest the tv bracket. wish i had known of them sooner... probably could have saved my 700 a lot of undue stress.
