1980 CJ7 , AMC 360 with a TBI, T-176, Dana 300, full float Dana 44 rear with spool,1983 Dana 30 wide trac with lock right, 4.88 gears and alloy shafts all around.
So I'm swapping a GM TBI onto my AMC 360. The carb had a stud with a ball end & socket end on the cable. The TBI has a straight stud with a groove for a clip. Is there anyway to adapt one to the other? Do I have to buy a whole new cable?
 
Mine was on a AMC 258 i6 / 4.2l , but I had to make an adapter plate and buy the ball studs, suppose you could go the other way and change the cable to match the TBI.
