'76 or '79 6cyl throttle cable?

[crust]

I am trying to get a new cable and pedal so I am looking for a proper measurement. Are they the same? the distance from firewall to cable end bracket is pretty short about 10" (guess). The chassis/body is a '76 and engine is '79

Not sure
This is the only ref I could find quickly. But I'm willing to bet that If I had a cable, I could make it fit.

NAPA shows two, one is 17 3/8" & the other is 21 3/8", but Advance Auto only shows one 21 3/8" long.

IMO, rather have it too long, than too short.

I had to replace mine (350 sbc) the one I got was to long, I could not get it to bend enough to make it work. I had to find one the right length.

Lol.

Alright, I set myself up for that one...

Just say it is like a Jeep, more maneuverable.
But, anyway thanks for the parts links. We use Napa at work but I, for some reason, totally brain-farted checking there.
