+AD4-I'd like to lose the loose linkage that's currently affixed to the side of
+AD4-my 235 and replace it with a more modern throttle cable setup.  I see
+AD4-several relatively easy ways to get the carb end of a cable connected
+AD4-(since theres already a throttle cable connected to the dash).  The
+AD4-problem is at the pedal end.  The easy way would be to bolt in a modern
+AD4-pedal assembly that's designed to pull on a cable instead of pushing on a
+AD4-rod.  However, I'd like to use the original pedal and keep the truck's
+AD4-appearance as original as possible.

+AD4-Is there a good way to convert to a more modern cable setup while
+AD4-retaining the original pedal?  Does anyone make a kit for this?  What do
+AD4-you guys with V8s do?
