Throttle cable/ tv bracket

have a 76 olds cutlass with a 350 and a 2004R and a 4bbl elderbrock. I’m looking for the correct mounting bracket to hook up the tv and throttle cable with the correct angle.

If it's a 76 Cutlass then the 2004r must be aftermarket. 81 was the first year of the 2004R. If you don't mind using aftermarket parts you can get a universal throttle cable from Summit or Jegs that will work with the 2004R.

I tried the elderbrock 8031 adapter and it was not big enough to mount on my intake. Was hoping there was a factory option for this that’s as easier.

Look for a 4BB throttle bracket from a 80's era Cutlass with V8. I got one from an '88 cutlass with 307cid V8 & 200-4r trans. This mounts to the rear Q-jet bolts, no need for custom brackets or modifications.

Throttle-TV bracket 200-4r

Here's a pic of the bracket you need - see attachment below. It's not the best angle but it's the only pic I have.

If you live in the USA, it might fit in a small flat rate box. If that's the case shipping would be $7.20, I believe.
Name your price.

Do you need anything else for your 76? I have parts for my 76 that I've been letting go.

I have a blue dash and front bumper fillers.
I only have the slant nose grilles. Don't think they'll work on your car, unless it's a 442 or S model.
what odds and ins?
