Hey guys, I'm looking for a cable throttle setup for my 67 camaro with 2 holleys. I have the Lokar setup but its so flimsy I dont feel good about it. I used the same setup on a car with 2 Demon blower carbs and had to really modify it to get full throttle. Lokar uses a small braided cable jacket that bunches up and gets shorter with the dual carb tension. Does anyone make a better cable setup than this. I want the car to be trouble free as possible and I'm scarred its going to break. This setup probably works good with single carb.
Thanks Kevin

I have a lokar pedal and cable on my 67 El Camino with 2 Holleys on a crossram and it works flawlessly. It's not a blower setup so that may account for some differences. You could always try adapting motorcycle cables (clutch or brake), they are a good bit thicker. Don't know how well it would work, though.

Thanks Randy, the motorcyle cable might be a good solution for me. The lokar pedal works ok after building a thicker cable bracket that doesn't flex like crazy. I'm gonna go to a motorcycle shop and check that out. Thanks Kevin
