Jim, HGs didn't have an accelerator cable, they had linkage from the firewall.

Having said that, there isn't a great deal of difference between the two, so whatever works for the WW, will operate a Q-jet.

If at first you don't succeed, just call it Version 1.0

From memory the WW's throttle rod is a bit shorter for the 253 as the throttle plate is further forward on a Quadrajet on a 308. I think you have to make a new rod up or lengthen it slightly.
