If you own a little bigger Sprint car you may be thinking about a push pull cable. http://pitstopusa.com/i-5068636-alls...tle-cable.html These are designed to push and pull as a solid unit, like an in and out cable for the rear end. Helps get away from all those bell-cranks and heims joints. You can have them made in any length from 6 inches to 60 feet or longer. They use a lot of them in Dyno Cells.
Some say potato some say potota? Done right they work as well or better than a solid set up.
