Anyone tried hooking Lokar Throttle Cable to stock gas pedal? - 1979 F100

Hey guys,
I have reached the step of my engine and tranny swap of installing a new summit carb and intake to my 351w and AOD Transmission. As many of you know, hooking an AOD transmission to an aftermarket carb requires a Lokar TV cable, Lokar carb bracket, and Lokar throttle cable. Everything is a go, except the throttle cable. It's designed to run through the firewall to a Lokar gas pedal.... but i dont have the money to buy a $150 gas pedal. My truck has the throttle arm that comes up right behind the intake manifold. Has anyone made the stock gas pedal work with a Lokar throttle cable? What kind of mods am I looking at, if any? Thanks for any suggestions!

Let us know how it works out. Document the job, take lots of pics and post them on here. Someone else will be able to use this information in the future.
