bellcrank linkage and acc cable

for those running bellcrank linkage, where are you securing the accelerator cable housing? also, i assume the cable needs to line up as horizontal as possible to the linkage. this seems to put it right at the line of the front cooling seal.

lastly, what linkage is used to secure the cable to the bellcrank? don't seem to be able to find the parts in my parts box.

I've converted to the bell-crank linkage and my accel housing (I made it out of aluminum stock) is bolted to the left top engine mounting bolt. Works great but I am going to re-work it so it looks better.

well, so far i just snipped a bit of the front seal so the housing will nestle in it and on the top of the case. the bracket on the case bolt is a good idea. may try that.
