Engine bay cleanup - Throttle/kickdown bracket Q's? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I just dropped in a new 1406 Performer and was curious what kind of brackets you guys are using for your throttle cable/ return spring/ kickdown brackets?

Looking for a neat clean looking install...

I posted a question about this a little while back in the engine section but didn't get any responses so I figured maybe I would get a little more by posting here

I used a stock bracket mounted to the rear manifold bolts.

The throttle and TV cable bracket is BTO due to my 700r4
