Has any one used adjustable pedals with a regular throttle cable? As in non-morose cable?

What have you done to overcome the cable issue? Even with a morose cable?

Need help please!

Easiest I have seen is I Had a quick disconnect throttle cable block installed that uses a hood pin style clip (not the proper name but it is 4:35AM so words are not going well) But it could easily be set up for just quick moving it a notch or something along those lines. not as precise as you would want probably or to the level of plug and play you were thinking but it works well.

Orange, the cable issue would be the changing of distance from the pedal to the carb making the cable needing to be adjusted too.

Here's what I'm thinking....
Use a cable like this

http://www.appletreeauto.com/THROTTLE-CABLE-9-5509-12/

And drill a second hole in the end, then attach a flat bar with holes drilled in it that correspond with the different spots of the slider, then using the little "Y" throttle thing with a pin sticking out of it and the spring clip above I could slide the attachment point of the throttle without having to change the distance to the carb and having to adjust it there.

What are your guys thoughts?
