I would have thought you could bend that up out a bit of 1mm steel and drill a hole saw through for the ISCV to pass through.

No, I mean the actual cam linkage itself where it is an indirect action on the shaft.

Jano makes them off the shelf when I used to use him. From memory the end of the spindle that goes into the tps needs machining flat so you can put the tps 180 degrees around from how it normally sits.

Also pretty sure you want a Escort diesel throttle cable if you want the shorter neater cable, the cheap aftermarket one I was supplied was shit and popped out the bulkhead a couple of time jamming the throttle open so I fucked it off and when bac to the genuine ford cable.

I've managed to get sorted with jano now mate ..do you have anymore info on the throttle cable as I'd like the neater version.

I remember better now, I had to put a hose clip on the cabin side of the bulkhead to stop the outer cable pulling out.
