Is four cylinder clutch cable the same as a 5.0 cable?

Thanks. Gathering stuff for my four banger coupe swap to T5.

Check with your local auto parts store to see if there are different cable part numbers for the 5.0 and 4 cylinder cars.

If memory serves me correct they are different, the connection at the transmission was different and using it caused undo stress on the clutch causing it to burn up.

I want to measure mine. It doesn't look that tall.

They are different. Do yourself a favor, get a 3 hook quadrant and firewall adjuster. My experience with the 4 cylinder cable is that it's non adjustable and is a bit on the short side.
