What is the proper length speedo cable for a 69 Plymouth Valiant 4 door car. I have found them at 60", 63" and 81". I don't want to have a bunch of cable curled up under there. Yes, I could pull the old one and measure it to be sure but That is not an option at this point. I would like to get one in here and be ready to exchange this when the car is down. I am sure someone has this info readily. Thanks,Bill
 
I tried a bunch of the aftermarket ones on my '70 & this is the only one that worked.

Can't say for sure on the 69, but my 75 Duster (6/904) had 63". I replaced it with a 68" from NAPA for $22 and the extra just came up a little higher by the master cyl.

That part # 3592360 that you show updated is the same # Classic Industries has and it said 62". So I am going to assume that 62 or 63 would be correct. Thanks, Bill
 
I had my original cable laying out in the garage. I grabbed my tape measure and it measures 62". It's out of a 1967 Barracuda with a 4-speed.
 
We put a 80" in a 69 2 door dart, and it's a little too long....
