  • EFI to carb throttle cable on a fox?

    Would the stock cable work or look like crap because of extra length? If I need a new cable which one?
    I tok the efi setup off to go with a blow through carb. It's an 87 fox.
    Thanks

    To long by one for a carb fox body and you will be good. I think mine was 20 bucks from autozone or oreilly's.

              I just stick my head out the window and yell "Vroom Vroom", However Im glad you asked the question and not me. Will be going big inched and carbed in T Minus ??????? I thought I would have to hire a monkey to ride under the hood for Throttle action.

                I see a lot of them using the EFI cable that's been looped around. It works, but I wouldn't do it. I would just buy the correct cable and be done with it and it wouldn't look like crap.
