What is the best way to connect the clevis on a Lokar throttle cable to the gas pedal? This is in my 84 C10 but it has the same gas pedal as our Camaros with the round hole and small slit up on top. The Lokar cable I have uses a clevis with a pin. Do I have to modify my pedal? These cables are supposedly suppose to work with both Lokar pedals and OEM pedals. This is the cable I have: https://www.summitracing.com/parts/lok-xtc-1000ht
I used that Lokar kit on my 72, here is a pic, I just inserted and welded in a steel tab and drilled a hole that fits the clevis pin, worked out great and do not have to play with the throttle cable.
I wondered if a guy could take the clevis off and just run the cable through the stock bushing in the pedal arm.
I figured it out. I remove the clevis from the cable then just pulled the inner cable all the way out of the housing, slid the stock GM plastic button on it and slid the cable back into the housing from the opposite direction. Fits just like stock now. I did however use a fender washer screwed to the firewall with a homemade gasket so the outer housing could pass through. The stock square firewall hole was just too big. I might have to adjust the position of the fender washer though because the cable hooks to the pedal at a slight angle. Still works pretty good though.
