Hook Up Your Throttle Cable Without the Fight

Remember that frustrating moment when you're deep into an engine swap or carb install, and the throttle cable just won't line up right? On 1977 and later Chevys, it's a common headache—stock linkages don't always play nice with performance upgrades like Edelbrock carbs.

The Problem with Mismatched Parts

Factory throttle setups on those classic GM V8s were built for emissions-era carbs, not the high-flow performers we love today. You end up with sloppy play, binding cables, or worse, cables that pop off mid-throttle. It's not just annoying; it can throw off your idle, response, and even safety on the road.

Your Simple, Reliable Fix: Edelbrock #8009 Kit

This throttle cable adapter stud kit is engineered specifically for Chevrolet applications from '77 onward. It includes the studs and hardware needed to bridge the gap between your cable and Edelbrock intake or carb setups. No custom fab work, no guessing—everything bolts on cleanly with basic tools.

Real Benefits You Feel on the Road

Once installed, expect crisp throttle response—no lag, no slop. Your engine snaps to life exactly when you mash the pedal, whether you're cruising the highway or launching at the strip. It's the kind of detail that makes your Chevy feel tuned just right, without the guesswork.

Where It Shines in Everyday Use

Picture this: You're restoring a '79 Camaro over the winter. Drop in an Edelbrock Performer intake, thread on the #8009 adapters, and your cable connects in minutes. Or on your daily-driver C10 truck, it keeps things reliable after swapping to a bigger quadrajet. Even hot rodders appreciate how it cleans up the firewall clutter for a pro-level look under the hood.

We've all been there, wrench in hand, cursing a stubborn linkage. This kit cuts through that nonsense. Grab the Edelbrock #8009, torque it down, and get back to what matters—driving.
