45 DCOE Throttle cable bracket

Anyone have any pictures of this? I do not have one and I have been looking through pierce manifolds for one, can't find a listing.

alternator bracket or that shinny v8 bracket from autozone, just drill it to enlarge one of the holes and mount it in the air cleaner. will take pix tomorrow if you need it.

That is where I have my problem. I do not have a stud that goes that far back from where you mounted the filter. Mine has stacks on it but the bolt does not thread that far back.

bend it and bolt it to the tranny/motor hole that is there to guide motor install. (the one with the eye) Or use a longer bracket mounted from there, tap the bracket hole larger if needed.

That is what I didn't want to do

No offense to wacky but I wanted it to look like it was an "official" weber part, so to speak.

Regardless, I made a bracket out of a 2nd gen ECU. Doesn't look great, but someday along the road I will pick up another.

Np in fact I like ur idea to make it look stock or orig but weber didn't come with throttle cable bracket . That air cleaner assembly came from my 48dco so imodified the spectra bracket to somewhat match the rb dellorto bracket.
