My six project I am back to getting parts to make it a runner. I read an post here I think about a cable from Patrick Motorsports that allows you to not run the bell crank and linkage. The engine in me would prefer to get ride of the rubgoldbergesk contraption that makes up the 914-6 throttle linkage.
Yes I have the factory version, and the Rich Johnson version, what can I say I like options. I think it is this one has anyone had success with this cable? |

I installed a "marine" steering cable (?) that was long enough to reach the rear axle location then bent up from under the axle 180 degrees and passed forward through the regular linkage hole in the engine sheet metal, anchoring the cable sheath onto the original 911 accelerator bell crank "platform" - thus no bell cranks other than the carbs themselves. The front portion of the cable sheath was also anchored within the tunnel near the gear shifter. Works well - three years now.
