Default throttle and kickdown cable knowledge needed.

Hi, I need to know if a 94 throttle cable can be used on a 93 corvette engine I also am lacking in the kickdown cable department. Will the 94 version work on a 700r4. I can't find either of these parts for a 92-93 lt1 vette engine and I'm not sure what to do. We already have the retro fit into my car almost done and I can't find the simplest parts.

Unless you are trying to install the ASR and ABS into your C3 which I doubt you do not need the 92/93 specific cables. I would try throttle and TV cables from a 91.
92 & 93 are different because they are the only year with ASR and 4L60. 94 and newer does not use a TV (kickdown) cable at all, kickdown and trans pressure is electronically controlled, they use the 4L60E transmission.

Good to know, In that case I can use the 94 throttle cable then, right. I think Taber corvette parts has a kickdown cable I can use then if a l98 one works. Thanks a lot.

A 94 cable will not work because it does go to the ASR servo, meaning it is two pieces. I would try the 91 as mentioned because it is one piece from pedal to throttle body.

95 camaro throttle cable, 91 camaro TPI cruise cable is what I am installing this weekend.

Not sure if this helps, I am deleting my ASR.

All LT* vettes have ASR, which is probably not what you want.
