    Looking for an Overdrive bolt that has the hole in it that the OD cable slips thru and locks, similar to an old fashion carb chock cable attachment..
    Any help would be appreciated...
    Have tried Shoebox Central and others.. no luck.
    thanks much...

    Try a lawnmower/small equipment repair place.

    Barring that, take a dozen donuts into a local machine shop and they should be able to cross drill a bolt for a couple bucks.

    Just put a bolt in your vice and drill a hole thru it yourself- DIY
