Hey folks. Ive done a lot of searching and came up empty handed. I'm adding a sniper efi to a 66 bronco with a 170 and I'm hoping someone might be able to help. I'd like to use a stock appearing throttle cable bracket and I'm having trouble sourcing an option that will work with the 170. Here are a few pics I've found of what I'm kind of hoping to source. Thanks in advance for anyone who can provide guidance and/or part numbers or even the years and cars these were on. If you actually have the bracket and youre willing to sell it, PM me as I'm happy to buy it.

the '63 uses an over-the-valve cover cable bracket on engine, accel cable and the floor pedal inside car from a Maverick. This makes for an almost universal setup for most carbs needing a PULL = 180 degrees from cyl's.
.
first pic above is my '63 with Maverick 170 / T5 and the Maverick throttle cable/pedal setup with various carbs', H/W 32/36-5200 on a 2Bbl adapter for last 10 years. 200 Maverick/Mustang bracket is same over-VC , taller 250 bracket can be mod'd to fit , pedal and cable are easy install. .

Thank you. Will I be able to source these new or am I destined for a scrap yard run?

Didn't the 66 Bronco 170 have a throttle cable?
Sorry I read back through your posts and see where you need a different cable setup.
 
It does. But the sniper/throttle linkage are in a slightly different position. I may be able to modify the stock throttle bracket to work. I haven't mocked it up yet and id prefer to not hack up 66 parts of i don't have to.

Yes agreed don't alter original parts.
Will either of the ebay parts listed above work?
powerband provided interesting info that the 200 bracket is shorter than the 250 bracket but the 250 bracket can be made to work on the 200. I had no idea of this.

They might very well work. I have a 170 and there may be some subtle differences. I'm going to look into these options for sure. Thx again.
