The little ball just snapped onto the gas pedal like it was made for it.

Heya Olivier!
That is the one I used, except I got the braided one to match my braided TV cable. It wasn't much more than that at a local speed shop.
You can trim the housing and cable as needed. Fit really nice on that Holley.

I'll have to use my current bracket because it also holds the transmission kickdown cable...
