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 believe that I have both a 4 & 6 cable in my parts bin. I can dig them out later today and measure the difference between them. RJ makes great 6 conv. parts but I liked his earlier version of the bellcrank setup vs the new one. I didn't care for drilling the trans case to mount the bracket so I made my own that mounts to the rear cover. If I wanted to swap out trans for a track event vs street use its a 2 min job. Yeah the new bracket could be swapped over in the same amount of time but again didn't like to drill into the case to ad the stud. Here's a few pics of what I made up. The rest of the parts used are factory 914-6. I added a pic of an early RJ mount as well. ** I found my 4 & 6 cables. The 4 cable is longer by 1 3/4 '' vs the 6. The 4 outer cover is 1 1/2 '' longer vs the 6. The 4 cable is the same thread pitch as the 6 at the pedal but no threads on the 4 cable at the other end. The 6 cable is threaded at the end for the ball cup to attach to the bellcrank. Hope this helps.** Attached image(s) |
