55.2-59 Gas pedal question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

1956 chevy truck
I have always used a linkage but want to use a cable.
I drilled a hole in the fire wall level from the Carb. a few years ago.
I have a modified S-10 gas pedal but the cable would need to be about 4" lower, if the cable goes threw the fire wall at a angle is should be good.
My S-10 gas pedal has about 6-1/2" levers top and bottom.
I think I will make my own, the pedal would be mounted to the floor and the linkage would be behind it.
Gas pedal angle too, the 3 lines at the gas pedal are where my brake and clutch linkage come up threw the floor.
Not sure how to do this, can you post some picture and get me on the right track ?
