Re: 70 k20 build that somehow turned into a frame off resto-swap

finished the trans hump and got the 2000 model throttle cable to work.i drilled an 11/16 hole in the firewall and it snapped right in. and used the 71-72 cable pedal assembly. i cut the plastic pedal arm stop off the cable and slid the 71-72 stop on the end so it would work with the 71-72 arm. also tweeked the arm so the pedal would be off the floor at full throttle.surprisingly easy to adapt!

also i bent a lip down around the tunnel openings like factory to make it stiffer.some vise grips did the job fine.you can see a little bit of the puke yellow color the truck used to be on the patch panels. the 524 red orange is much nicer(in my opinion).
