Default Throttle cable bracket.

I want to get an aftermarket throttle cable bracket for my car. I t has a holley and I want to use one of those billet ones that bolt to the carb. The only ones I find are the ones that fit the cables with the square black end on it that clips in. Are there any for the older style cables.

You would probably have to fabricate the part that secures the cable into a clamp style. They mostly look like the Lokar style/ GM square block. The universal ones have different size square holebut that part is removable. I searched the Summit page and thats all I saw under the unversal clamps.
Good luck

I found a throttle cable bracket for a Holley on Ecklers site. The bolt and retainer are separate. For 69-73. Might be worth a look.
