We need part number or at least application for an
E-body with a tall intake and single Dominator.
Pictures of set-up appreciated as well.

Thanks.

check in the tech section, it has a list of lenghts and part numbers. I got a cable at autozone or oriellys for 19.99 and I used the AR engineering bracket works very well.

A slant six throttle cable were long, and should be hard to find.
I bet the slant six is longer than the big block, unless the throw is funky or something.

I ordered mine and they were in the next day for under $20.00 you cant go wrong, much thicker cable than a lokar, and it goes together so easy with AR'a bracket a caveman could do it. fit my M1 4500 flange manifold with a 1050. I swapped to an M1 for a 4150 and a 950 bigs/holley reused everything with a small adjustment.

It kind of depends on the intake manifold. The M1 4500 intake is a lot lower than something like an Indy 440-3X. I have throttle bracket and throttle return kits that will fit any intake that I'm aware of but there isn't a universal kit that fits every single intake.

The slant six cable is the one to buy. If you can't find that one then the one from a pickup truck will usually work but it is about an inch shorter. I published all the cable part numbers years ago.

This is on a SB with a Super Victor and 1 1/2" Wilson adapter.
We will probably use a baseplate bracket for the cable, just
the existing cable will not physically reach.

I understand the E-body cables are different than A-body,
where they attach or go through the firewall?

Thanks,everbody. I am going to use my old throttle cable and fabricate a bracket to use it.It was only about a 1/2" shy of working,due to the height with the 4150 to 4500 adapter,and using my Jeg's throttle cable bracket.
After looking it over and thinking about it,it should be a pretty easy piece to fab.
