TPI Cable questions

Throttle cable? whats a good cable that you guys use doing a TBI to TPI swap?

I went to the autoparts store no luck with finding a replacement but did find a TV cable.

Ive read on here that aftermarket TV cables arent all that great.

What should I do buy used OEM?

Can't you get a new one from GM?
A used one would work. Just make sure you clean and lube it up.
