I made my own cable. Use either 1/16" or 3/32" wire cable - buy at the hardware store for 10 cents per foot. Buy the right size cable tube (for either a 1/16" or 3/32" cable) from a motorcyle shop. Buy a carburetor-end connector from your local auto parts store. Drill and tap the accelerator pedal connector and use set screws to hold the cable in place. Set up a support terminal on your intake manifold. Run the cable around the back of the engine in a large arc. Lightly lube the cable in the tube. It will run very smooth.
