Throttle Cables - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Question regarding throttle cables. Does anyone manufacture extra long (30" - 36") throttle cables that have ends similar to what GM put on a regular 71 throttle cable? For instance, looking at an original throttle cable it's about 15" long (could be off but it is short), the end at the pedal has a little round ball pressed to the cable and the other end has a connector for the stud on the carb linkage. Looking at Lokar, their ends are different than this.

I'm sure you could find a Lokar kit. Never dealt with them. The ball end and eyelet are standard GM. I would call TechSupport at Jegs.
