I was wondering what everyone is using for a throttle cable in a swap of an F body. I am building a car with my kid it is a 1980 Trans Am with a LS2 cable throttle body.

LS2s never had a cable throttle body :-)

I have used the cut to length Lokar cables and they work well. I bet you can probably find something suitable at a junk yard too. The People's Champ says you're ...thrifty :-P

I just need the length, Thank you very little. And a roll of tape for his mouth would work wonders. LOL
