It's time to replace the throttle cable and the one that's in it is probably left over from the 6 and is too long. Does anyone know where I can find a throttle cable along with the measurements? It looks like I need a pretty short one. 7993465-DSC00090.JPG (38 downloads)

Had it on the slant six, and shortened it to work with the RB engine. Works great and looks good too! 84 D150 440/727 79 /6 swb D150 1964 A100 window van. Just because it has spark plug tubes doesn't mean it's a Hemi. If ya haven't been there, ya just wouldn't understand.

I can return the flavor on the white face gauges that work awesome in my truck. all lights work nice and bright with high beams and a ALT GAUGE that moves and shows it does charge as well as charging.. that's something I have NEVER saw a mid 80s ALT gauge do before. shoot me your addy again
