View Full Version : Throttle cable with aftermarket fuel rails

When fitting aftermarket rails you obviously lose the crossover pipe and the cable gets secured to that (circled in yellow in the pic below)

So I was wondering where do you guys with billet rails secure your throttle cable to?

Do you just make up a bracket and secure it to one of the manifold bolts?

I have a couple of pics on my comp and it looks like the cables just sitting there laying on the manifold :confused:

I dont see a problem with it sitting on the manifold.
The manifolds plastic too but the idea of a little bracket off one of the bolts doesn't seem so bad
