While it's not a V8, my EFI car uses a Fiero throttle cable operated by the 
bellcrank in the tunnel.  The cable is quite long (I'd guess 6-7') and very low 
friction.  I had to make a small plate with a rectangular hole to accept and 
mount the cable to the rear of the tunnel.  Also, I put a small spring in the 
tunnel. Was it to maintain cable tension or help return the pedal?? I haven't 
opened the tunnel in 10 years, so I don't remember why I put it there!  :& 
Quite likely much lower friction than a morse cable.
