Correct Length Throttle Cable

[j_anderson]

1972 Dart Swinger AT with 318 2BBL

Installed a 4BBL 360 intake and will be using a TQ carb.

What is the correct throttle cable length or can anyone supply a link to a listing of the correct cable.

Thanks in advance.

Your 2bbl. cable should be the same as a 4bbl. application- but this could vary depending on the throttle brackets that you use; i.e. factory 4bbl. brackets, modified 2bbl. brackets, aftermarket "fitzall" brackets, etc. and whether you're running a carb spacer...
You've got basically two choices for a factory style cable:
19":

24":

If you need something else, you're looking at a Lokar or clone.

Make sure to get the 1971-1976 V8 4bbl, part number IS-541. This is correct for the Thermoquad.

I've used a C body and a /6 a body cable for a High rise Weiand and Holly Strip Doms....stock v8 was to short

A-bodies use three different length cables 67-74 Slant six is the longest, Then small V8 2bbl, the shortest is V8 4bbl. When using a higher intake or carb spacer and a higher cable bracket a V8 2bbl cable works the best.

You can use the 2bbl on a 4bbl it will just loop up higher between the carb. and the firewall. All the cables have the same pull measurement. It is the over all length that is different to reach the attachment point.
