Colin,

You should have read Tech Note 17, Induction and Carburetors. This excerpt form 
Tiger
List postings warns of using stock accelerator cable on 4 barrel installations. 
 They
are under tension and break.  You would have heard that Sunbeam Specialties 
carries a
longer version for this application, and the pedal adjustable stops and 
throttle WOT
position are coincident.  No broken cable.

The voice of experience (from the side of the curb I had to limp home with the 
idle
screw keeping the revs up)   BTDT.

Steve
