Throttle set-up, cable length and bellcrank pivot bracket Options

[porschetub]

Getting closer to fitting the "6" and would like to know the differance in length of the stock 4 cyl throttle cable and the one for the 6 cyl,research indicates there is a differance in length.
Also has anyone got or can link me to a drawing of the throttle cable retainer and bellcrank pivot ,my g/box is a 4 cyl one and I don't have the luxury of an intermediate pivot,thanks in advance.

I only have the cable for the 4 cylinder, but I am building a conversion using an authentic bell crank on an early intermediate plate. I found of course that the stock 4 cylinder cable I am used to has a metal rod at the end that is clamped by a barrel nut in the efi throttle body. On the other hand the bell crank expects a 4 mm threaded rod at the end. That screws into the snap ball joint half that swivels on the bell crank.

No worry. For less than a dollar I put a 3 mm time cert into the socket and tapped the rod on the end of the cable to match. The outer threads of the time cert match the ball socket.

Now, time will tell if the cable is long enough, but I kinda think it is.

Short answer - no they don't match. But they might...
