Difference between 85-88 and 89-92 TPI throttle cables
Hi guys, one of the last parts I need for my TPI retrofit this coming week is a throttle cable. I'm using this cable on a 2nd gen with a 327 in it. Year One shows two different throttle cables for the TPI 3rd gens -- one for 85-88, another for 89-92. Whats the deal with this? 89 was still a MAF setup, so I am not sure why it would be set up for a different cable. Can anyone suggest which I should use, and will it have the same fitting on the firewall / gas pedal end that the 2nd gen uses? Thanks

8Mike, thanks, that's exactly what I needed to know. I almost bought an 89 throttle cable on ebay the other day. Good thing I lost the auction, since I have an 86 intake and throttle body!
