Finally a little progress on the 20b install

Finally the engine is in the car. After 6 months of working on it for an hour here and there. What did others do for a throttle cable bracket? I'm not sure what to make? I had a q45 tb on it before and the bracket was pretty simple.

Hrmmm, i ended using an FD throttle body, but i just cut a peice of metal and bent it to shape, knotching it and drilling holes for the screws, works perfect.

one thing to note though, pay attention to how long it is. that position hooks onto the cruise control thingy. you may have to play around with where you set your cable to make sure the throttle will still open up all the way. the cable will more than likely be run in without much slack.

i don't wanna read any threads a few months from now about how your 20b only did 190 whp because the throttle wouldn't open up all the way
