Mighty Demon Owners...
What kind of throttle cable brackets are you using? My single bolt spectre bracket keeps moving.

I had a helluva time with this on my Speed Demon. I ended up switching to a Lokar cable and going with a two bolt bracket.
Swapping the cable was not as bad as I expected.

I using one of the milled aluminum type that attaches to both of the driver side bolts and has an adjustable cable hold down along with a Locar cable. Can't remember the exact company, but alot of places make ones like it (Jegs, Holley, ....). Usually runs ~$50.

I now use a Lokar....before that, I added a small metal spacer tab on the stock bracket to prevent it from moving.

the bracket from CSR works great. I had the same problem but this has fixed it for good.

Can you see the bolt? Just drilled the Spectre bracket a little bit and used a bolt that I had lying around. Solid as a rock.
