302 EFI throttle pedal ideas or suggestions

[scottnoon87]

Hello all, i've recently put a 302 out of a 89 mustang into my 68 bump. im having trouble trying to modify my stock throttle pedal to work with a cable operated throttle body. the pedal is too heavy for the throttle body spring to return the pedal after wide open throttle. any pictures or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Maybe a heavier spring on the return? Or a secondary spring on the pedal arm?

Just bolt in the stang version of the pedal.

iv added an addition spring to the throttle body which has helped drastically. im using Lokar cable made for a mustang, the only real issue im having now is the cable saws slightly on the aluminum housing ends of the cable.
