Which DBW pedal to use?

[svl612]

Hello Gents,

It's been a while since I’ve been able to pick back up on my build for my 70 Roadrunner. I have a 6.4 crate engine with the Holley Terminator X Max system.

I’m wondering if anyone else has used the Holley DBW pedal and had any good/bad experience with it? Or should I find a different DBW pedal to use for my application? Also- did anyone build a mounting bracket for this?

The Holley pedal looks generic, so I’m just curious what kind of headache I will run into.


Thanks in advance,
Thomas

I am using a pedal from a Jeep Cherokee. I cannot say how well it works (or doesn't) because the car isn't running but I can say that the pedal is made decently and Holley has a harness for it.

Ahh ok. I think I heard of someone using a Jeep Cherokee pedal but didn’t realize Holley made a harness that would work for the X-max. I will have to check that out. Thanks for that

The holley pedal is a mopar LX/LC pedal, so challenger/charger/300. Its the same part number that comes with the mopar kits. It will bolt in, just need new holes. I believe i had to shim the bottom left bolt out with a 1/4 inch spacer. If you are using a 727 or 518, bolt it right over top of your existing pedal bracket, and let the new pedal push your old lever for kickdown. Works great with a lokar style cable. I'll find a pic.

Found it! Part number is in there too if needed. This is mock-up in my 67 charger, so floor pan and bracket should be the same.
Kickdown options (besides full manual valve body) for Drive by Wire

What cable did you use? Thanks!

I've been using the Jegs equivalent, more than likely made by Lokar, but half price. These come in regular braided also. Today is the last day of the this sale, so use the code at the top of the page. Oh hell....I sound like an infomercial!
