Not sure of your actual question. But, if it helps at all, I have an offy intake with holley 4bbl carb, and stock throttle linkage. It will work if you fabricate a new bracket, and the carb is mounted with primaries facing the front of the engine. It works, but not ideal. If you are having length issues, a k-car cable can be made to work, with enough length to mount carb with primaries facing the valve cover.

There is a Holley adapter that allows full throttle operation. It bolts to the throttle lever. If your looking for a throttle cable bracket, some of the speed shops have things that can be improvised to work. They are generally made for V8 applications. I fabricated my own.

Are you looking for tuning advice? 52 primaries, 56 Secondary, Purple spring, Orange cam, screw hole #2, 28 shooter, 10.5 PV. That's a start.

The lokar cable would fix you up!! :shock: with very little work.
We just mounted the 2bbl stock linkage to make the offy and 4bbl work!!

Yep it is. I used it on my clifford + 390cfm 8007 along with the lokar bracket that holds the gas and kickdown cable.
