1979 Throttle cable.
I just installed the bracket and throttle cable on my new carb (demon). Now the gas pedal is half way down in the car before the cable pulls the linkage on the carb. Is there any way to shorten this cable?

Is the bracket right for the carburetor? You can also relocate the anchor point of the cable sheath by bending the bracket if desired. Also be sure that the attachment point on the carb's throttle arm is the same distance from the center of the shaft as it was with the stock carb.
