I think you are describing the 289 cars throttle linkage. The 427 cars have a little different system that comes off of the side of the foot box, up front. Our ERAs are a little different than original cars I'm sure, but similar.
I don't have the best picture of it but if you look at the side of the black metal bent plate on the side of the left foot box, you can see the shaft and bellcrank that comes out there.
