COE Controls

Those of you with a driving COE .............. What did you use for throttle control? Linkage or cable?

How about shifter and linkage what did you use for this?

Thanks,
Donn

 

I just bit the bullet and had some custom cables built.15 foot shifter and throttle

 

I have cable's fore throttle and shift. Work fine
Summit hade very long shift cable's in stok.

 

Thanks guys ......now what kind of shifter did you use? What about gas pedal?

 

I went for a B&M megashifter and a Lokar foot feed (just cause I had it) c/w a pulley set up.Used electronic speedo ( so just 3 wires to the trans)Gearvendors is a couple wires also

 

Cable, Cable, Cable, Always use cable over linkage when you can. Easier to set up and no maintenance. I'm using a 70's GM column with shifter because my floor has to come out for engine maintenance and tune ups. If my floor was permanent I would use a Lokar floor shifter.

 

My throttle cable came from California Cable Co.(about 16 feet long)
My shifter cable came from NAPA. I found it in the Balkamp catalog in the Industrial section under push/pull cables. It is connected to a Lokar Nostalgia shifter(about 10 feet long I think)
My power steering hose was made using Aeroquip fittings and the power steering hose made to work with the fittings. about 12 feet long if I remember correctly)

Everything has worked flawlessly for 16,000 miles over a 5 year time period.
