First of all I do not have first hand experience with this cable. I did make a custom bracket to mount mine on the intake manifold side. If you were to some how extend the bracket, move it or make a new one that was 2" closer to the carburetor that would solve the issue if I understand the problem. It would also get the sharp radius bend away from the cable end which would probably make the cable operate smoother. My thoughts...
Here is the best picture I could find of the one I made. It was cut from a piece of extruded aluminum channel. It is set in a near stock position but I think I adjusted the height of the mount to better line up with the throttle body. Looking at the picture I can see that it is set back towards the cabin. Can your bracket be flipped around 180° to position the mount closer to the carburetor?
