There's a guy over on FABO selling repro E-body positive battery cables. He says they fit and work fine on A-bodies. I thought my 68's cable was a lot longer. Has anyone used the E-body cables on their 67-69 A? The E-body cables are dirt cheap...A-body cables not so much.

I sold several of them for the A body guys and never heard of any issues .
But you want one for the small block E body to use on a small block A body (small block cable is longer)

ck mopar number 3764166 ( replaces 2983648 )

pt # 2983649 is big block E body cable,, but it's about 5-6 inches shorter

an E body cable will work but because it is 6 or 7 inches shorter it will "drape" to the inner fender towards the firewall rather than follow tight to the battery

I think that's what he's selling. I bought one for my Challenger from the dealer. That was three years ago at least.

It was when I ck'd last. Last tiem I ck'd retail was les than $50 for the positive cable.
Negative ( pt # 2983778) was almost $70
But thats probably been a year ago.
But judging by how many are all over ebay,,,I'm gonna say yes.
