TPI Throttle cable question...

I'm running a set of ITB's and the throttle cable that came with this car has the wrong end on it, i'm looking for one that has the barrel style end on it. Anyone know if the TPI cable has this?


Here is the correct end..



and where it hooks up on the ITB throttle rail.




Thanks for any help.

Re: TPI Throttle cable question...

im gonna post as well.... the 4th gen v6 cable(assuming the length is right) has that end on it and will fit in the firewall and attach to a third gen pedal as well

hope that helps

when i used the 3.4 intake on my car i had to find a cable with that end on it, luckily the 4th gen cable was an exact fit in a third gen

Cool, there are a few 4th gens in the yard near me. That'll probably be the easiest thing to do.


Thanks

Re: TPI Throttle cable question...

no problem, glad i saw this thread before you went and blew a bunch of money on one lol

not sure if the v8 cars use the same connection

the only difference is how the cable hooks to the firewall but i put mine in and turned it and it has stayed in the firewall just fine
