Starting Fox TB Swap Need One more Part

Hey guys I got every part i needed out of a junkyard in PA.

The name was great "Harry's you pull it". Let your minds run with it.

Anyway I got 2 fox TPS's with both ends of the wiring with plugs. Ended up pulling them out of some old 5.0 station wagon.
Got the AIC motor off of one too.
Took the throttle cable bracket.
Going to order a new fox 70mmTB with EGR Delete plate for 180.

Only thing im missing the the damn throttle cable. I found one 92 cobra that was a shell and they cut the cable when they pulled the motor.

If you guys know of any junkyard i can call and order the cable cheap or even buy a new one.

Ordering the whole trickflow engine kit soon and want to do the swap before so i dont run into any problems.

I found mine on ebay when I went to a FOX setup.

i just looked one ebay I think i found one.. I see some that are going from the tranny to the TB, is that right?

I thought i only need the cable going from the top of the pedal to the TB?

i just called up ford they want $75 for the cable

Called up a junkyard and got one for $65

Can anyone do any better?

I think I got all the parts required for the fox swap for under $65. I'd keep looking if I were you. Somebody may be parting something out close to you. Check on a local forum.

i got all my parts for freebut 1, including the TB. I just had to buy the egr eliminator from UPR for 35 bucks. I even had a fox coldair i got for free with the TB.

I just did the swap saturday night. I was going to use the stock aic BUT with the RPM it will NOT work because it site about an inch higher and the hood will not close. so i had to leave my hood open ovber night and get the AIC the next day from a friend.

the throttle style feels way different and more on/off ish if that makes sense. the streets are very wet so i have not gotten to get on it but driving around yesterday if i gave it throttle in any gear it would spin. breaking lose at 70 in 4th was not something i like to burden the GF with.

the motor revs up real quiclkly at idle and its louder in the engine bay for some reason.

My car is also running richer at WOT which makes me more comfortable until i put it on the dyno after i do gt40Ps and long tubes.

the part throttle midrange is what really picked up. Does this make it faster in a race? NO does it make it more fun to drive? yes.

I wil have to strap on the new et streets and take it to the track to see what she will do.

remember you might need some vaccuum line to reach form teh FPR to the intake and your main line will have to come off the 94-95 elbow and go to the intake.

well i just ordered the used one for 65..

had to get a new Mac TB 70mm with 75mm delete plate. also got a new bolts and gasket kit for it.

i know im waisting money, but time is more valuable than what its costing right now.
