Thanks for your pics as well. Can I ask what BTO is? I have a carb bracket that I need to compare to this but for now I'm a bit confused on the brackets. I'm sure it'll make more sense once I get into the install and actually have the motor and carb I'm using in the vehicle.
I'm also curious what tools, if anything special, I'll need when I visit the salvage yard to rob a pedal/cable.
One more thing, Mark mentions cable being too long, is it hard to shorten one if these cables? I have a friend who is very into bicycling and bulls his own bikes and shifting cables, wonder if he'd have tools to do bicycle cables and if they'd somewhat work on throttle cables. Guess I'll have to compare.
I'll post a few pics when I start going with my swap as well.
