Need throttle cable
« on: December 04, 2008, 11:05:58 AM »

Hi I am after a throttle cable for te with 4 barrel holley. I think we measure it to be 1.3m or 1.4m long. I was going to get one made up but seeing what is out there first. Can any one help even with part number to source one. My car is almost done and this is the last piece needed
Cheers Brad

Yea it will, i used one when i did my first 4 bbl conversion, originally i made a bracket to fit the original cable, but in was stiff to operate and the speco cable had ample length.
