Don't know if it's compatible, not cheap either.

The link below could probably make one for you;

Would it work?isee some on summit for like 30-40 but they are for a v8 which mine is,that seems like its specific for a v6?

 

They made 4 different cables with two different style ends for the Maverick/Comet. One has a ball/socket and the other an eye/pin where it connects at the pedal. The eBay link above is the ball/socket style. The V8 cable is shorter than the I6 cable.

 

I believe mine is the pin for the v8

 

I've just been using the universal ones you get from autozone/oreilly with the steel braided sleeve... cut to fit.

 

think you can gimme a link?ill try those as a temporary solution

 

Got the thing fixed with a universal cable from specre,had to buy the cable along with the damn adaptor for it.I'm not a big fan of how it feels though,also took a lot of cutting and jerry rigging,would definetly go with stock next time or might replace it later on.

 

accelerator cable for I6

I might have one. will look tonight

 

i need the ball and socket cable and would love to get another one cus i reeaally dont like this aftermarket setup.

 

throttle cable for 72 6 cylinder

this came off a 72 Comet with 6cyl.. it has the ball and socket on one end and the hole for a pin on other end
send pm if still interested - not sure whats fair .. $45 plus shipping?

 

That's the same one I pulled off my 75 and put on my 70. The 70 throttle cable was awful lol

 

looks good but idk what that bracket is for?mine didnt have that,and i believe the I6 cables are shorter?not sure,ill look into it and get back to you,but it seems fair for 45,the universal ran like 30 plus 30 for the adapter

 

V8 cable is anywhere from 6"-8" shorter than the six cable. http://1bad6t.com/Extra2/CableLength.gif

 

this definitely came off of a 72 Comet 6 cyl.. the cable was curled to show both ends. the bracket bolts to the block
