|  Throttle Cable
What are you guys doing for throttle cables and what length did you buy?
I'm looking into a custom Lokar but need the length.
Thanks.. |

Length really depends upon your induction choice and your chosen routing...

I got the longest one Speedway sells. I think it was 96 inches.

Fran - I have Dual Quads with the pickup point mid-way of the manifold between the carbs. I have no "preferred" routing or instructions to deal with. I would presume that I would drill a hole in the tunnel to get the cable to the rearward compartment of the car.
Jeff - How did that work out for you? Long time no see!!! | |

Check out Pegasus Racing. They will custom make you a throttle cable any length, and with a large selection of ends. That is what I plan to do
