All who have done the Fox TB swap, has anyone found a shorter TB cable that will work? The 87-93 fox 5.0 TB cable is about a foot too long and hits the firewall & intake and the 87-93 fox 4cyl tb cable is too short.

Has anyone found one that is just right?

Thanks!

I use the fox 5.0 cable. It is long length wise but it still works. Just bends around.

Yeah I know it works, but I was hoping to find something a bit shorter is all.

Take the cable to a "good" NAPA store. They have a book and can match up whatever you need. You can see if there is a better fit and post it here.
