I just finished doing a Weber swap on my 86 brat just wondering what to do about my throttle cable bracket. The old one is just barely to far away and my kit did not come with a new one. Just looking for tips and ideas thanks in advance

This has been covered quite a bit. You should find your answer in this thread... check the bottom post first.

Put a 90 bend in it, and attach it to the carb mounting stud.

I made a spacer bracket for mine 80mm long from ally angle iron. Mounts to the original bolt on the intake manifold. On the other end I flipped the original bracket back to front and bolted it on.

 

Minor bracket bending with a 12" shifter and the cable run is almost dead straight. Been on the car for 2 months now with no problems. Also nicked the throttle return spring from my old hitachi and ran it from the weber linkage to the bracket just to the right of the distributor. Stopped run-on on hot days. Cheers.
