Slant 6 throttle cable

I've faced this issue both ways - needing a cable that is either longer or shorter than what I had. I had to do some searching to find what I needed, but I ordered from Rock Auto. Their website will give you the cable length measurement. For instance on my truck to go from a 2bbl to a 4bbl, I had to get a shorter cable by about 7". I kept clicking on random vehicles until I found one the right length (it was a late 70's Volare that fit). This is not an efficient process, but it does work.
