Question for TH350 cable

ok i was wondering about the harm that could happen if i run the car without the cable. the thing is that the cable doesnt reach the Holley double pumper i put on. i bought a mr gasket universal throttle bracket but it still doesnt reach. just in case how much would a new cable run me?
thanks for any info

I don't think with a 350 it will do any harm but you will have to downshift it manually.

With the th350, all it does is downshift. So, you won't have a throttle activated downshift. The only harm could be from the added heat the converter will produce if you don't downshift correct forcing the converter to slip alot.

350 with stealth intake, holley carb, 470 lift cam. 700r4 with .5 boost valve, vette servo, tci lock-up kit, B&M megashifter. Richmond 3.73 gears, powertrax locker, timkin bearings, synthetic lube. Custom 3 inch single into 2 2.5 pipes. 1 1/2 drop springs, 1 5/16 solid front sway bar, 1 inch rear bar, custom subframe connectors, custom LCA relocation brackets. Kobel ground FX, current red metallic paint. Lots of other stuff...

Just pull the shifter down to second gear. That's downshifting. That's what that cable does when it's hooked up. I don't have mine hooked up cause I was too lazy too. I just downshift it myself. Get a B&M Megashifter for it. You'll be glad you did.
