Ls1 throttle cable
What cable are you guys using? Cheaper the better. My TPI cable is a big fat no, my carb setups live a TBI cable all day.

Re: Ls1 throttle cable
Any pics? I was hoping I could use a stocker, I think I could use a LT1 cable? Think the last time I used a TBI cable in a LT1 car, it mated to the has petal like stock when I used a carb.

Re: Ls1 throttle cable
I used the same cable for my swap
its a tad long though, so I tied a not at the pedal end to take up the slack rather than bending the pedal

Re: Ls1 throttle cable
Ditto to the above. 99 cable. Had to bend the pedal arm back a tad to reach WOT. 5 minute job.

Re: Ls1 throttle cable
Well, seems I can make a bracket that will take the slack up then.
Re: Ls1 throttle cable
Tie a knot in the cable? Bend the pedal?
I cut the pedal end of my 99 cable to match the stock cable, then crimped and brazed on a new end that fit the stock pedal.
