Ended up running a total of 1.5” worth of aluminum spacers under the mod’d factory gmt800 throttle bracket. Then ran a stock DBC accelerator cable. It fit perfectly to the throttle body and the pedal.



Here you can see the butterfly opening. The pedal stops a few inches above the floor board.

Sounds like you have a decent camshaft!

Put the engine cover mount and trimmed up the cover tonight. Fits really nice. About an 1/8” space between the cover and the cable mount.

Why not just ditch the cover?

I feel like it cleans up the engine bay as well as adds a little extra modern engine look to it. Yes, plastic, but still modern…..right lol

Also, not everyone is going to know exactly what that is, so the cover with the badge helps.
