IMHO that is such a short jaunt why go cable? Source yourself the one piece link off a Dent with the same engine as you. Use your same pedal and bellcrank.

This is an old pic with clips at both ends. A few months ago I sourced and installed one off a 78/79 (IIRC) which uses a ball stud attachment at the carb linkage. EZ.
