Throttle cable/TV cable too long with new motor

Hello, I just swapped in a 350 sbc from blue print engines into my 1987 IROC. It came fully dressed with a Holley sniper EFI unit. However, the original throttle cable and TV cable are too long since they used to go all the way to the TPI bracket for the throttle. Can I shorten them, if not what should I do? Please help.
