I use similar cable with the bracket AndyF makes. I have used it on an M1 4500/ dominator and then on an M1 4150/ 950. I was able to reuse everything over when I swapped intakes with a very small adjustment. I would reccomend that bracket to anybody. I painted mine. so easy and priced right.
here is a pic under the air cleaner
maybe this isnt tall enough to rear your intake/ carb combo?
