71-72 throttle cable help

[OrrieG]

Do not know if this will help but I sold both of the throttle cables off my 74 donor trucks to guys that used them in rods. bolts to the firewall from the cab side, small hole for cable pull action. 74- 80 something will be the same. You should be able to lengthen or shorten the cable using a swag type end terminal, google to see the various applications. I have used them to modify e brake cables. There are fancy tools you can buy to compress them, but I use a 4# hammer and have not had any failures....
