I'm thinking of switching my 200 4R from the elky into my 64 to squeze every mpg I can out of that little 283 but am concerned about finding the right bracketry to hook up the tv cable. The 283 has the little stock Rochester 4GC and I'd like to keep it. Anyone done this successfully or seen a kit for this carb application? I looked at the TV Made EZ kits but didn't see one. Probably not available. That's the way my luck seems to run. ;)

So....you're familiar with this cable? It has the right geometry for the linkage on a 4GC so I won't destroy my 200 4R? Or, are you just helping me look? :beers:

I'm familiar with the company, I use their throttle on my 67. I would invest in a phone call.

That link has great info. Referred to it often when I was first learning about the 200 and 700 OD and TV cables. I had somehow lost it from my favorites list...so thanks for posting it for me. But, the home made bracketry work is what I'm trying to avoid with this question. They are available for a lot of carbs but I haven't seen one for the 4GC yet.
