The brake / clutch pedal box was changed between '72 and '73.
The gas pedal linkage was never attached to the brake / clutch box on any 140 as far as I know.
I think the firewall is different between a '72 and '73 as well.
Never saw a cable linkage on a carburated 140 but they may exist since other markets still used carbs after '73.
Volvo might have used a cable linkage with the injected models and though I removed it all when I converted to carbs, I can't remember how it was positioned or if it could be modified to fit the dual carb set-up.
My guess is that it isn't just a simple swap, maybe someone will correct me.
