Installing a Throttle Stop

cal · 02-27-2011, 05:57 PM

OK guys I just got a Biondo throttle.
My problem is I have a GM type cable, can I still Make this thing work?
I keep looking at it, scratching my head and say OK.
Any Pics might help.
I really want to try this Hot Rod Racing this year.

sorry, can't help you.....only have experience with baseplate stops.

have you tried calling biondo? they are great with customer service.....

Provided you have room call Biondo's to exchange for a baseplate style, you'll be happier with the results. And as LL said, they are great guys to deal with.

They also have two different styles of connector for their inline stops. I know this because I chose the wrong one, and within an hour of my placing the order on-line, someone called me to say "are you sure"? And of course I was wrong. What amazing customer service.

Give 'em a call, you'll certainly get the help you need.

YOU WONT BE ABLE TO MAKE AN INLINE STOP WORK WITH YOUR STOCK CABLE.WHAT I DID ON MY CAR WAS BUY A FIREWALL MOUNT CIRCLE TRACK PEDAL IT WAS INEXPENSIVE (40or SO DOLLARS) IT HAS A TOE RETURN HOOK MADE ON TO IT ALREADY WHICH IS MANDATORY BY RULES AND MADE A THROTTLE ROD OUT OF 1/4" ROD WHICH WILL THREAD INTO YOUR INLINE STOP.JUST BE SURE TO TO MAKE A POSITIVE PEDAL STOP OUT OF A BOLT THATS ADJUSTABLE

It will work just fine. Mine has been on the car 15 years.

Buy a CSR throtllle stop cable bracket to mount the exterior cable and the interior cable just fits inside the back of the stop with a lock nut.

Thanks guys.
I'll look into the CSR cable bracket, and possible a under carb plate.
Only got 5 weeks or so till MIRs Pro Am race.
I'd like to be ready for it.
