Yeah, I did. I'm using Lokar's kick down cable which was made for stock factory length. With the higher intake rise and the spacer between the carb, it was putting too much of an angle / bend on the TV cable. If I was to do it again, I would use a universal (cut to fit) TV cable.
Thank Mike - I really appreciate the detailed response.

After reading it, I started some research and I think I'll use the Lokar TC1000U for my throttle cable - saw some reviews on the Mr Gasket one that gave me pause.

And for the rest of your update, it's AWESOME. Great work!
