Firebird Throttle Cables 1968 / 1969

Q: Firebird Throttle Cables 1968 / 1969

I need help finding a throttle cable for a 1968 400. What one is correct?

A: Well, it seems there are some out there selling NOS cables as something they are not.

INFO I’VE DISCOVERED (*thanks to all who’ve shared*)

ORIG. GM PART NUMBERS:

9792222 1968/1969 F-6 1Bbl, F-8 2Bbl
***YELLOW TAG***
Total Length End-to-End:    19.5"
Case Length:                13.5"
(((This one is apparently still avail. from GM for approx. $25)))

9792223 1968/1969 F-6 4Bbl
***BLUE TAG***

9792224 1968/1969 F-8 4Bbl
***WHITE TAG***
Total Length End-to-End:    18.0"
Case Length:                12.5"

Now, in order to confirm all of this, it would be nice if any owner’s could measure their cables/cases. This includes all of the above… 4Bbl V-8, 2Bbl, 1Bbl I have a few pictures that I’m trying to get on the Generation-1 WebSite for comparison but AOL has been a real annoyance lately in updating info. Anyhow, if the updates come through, they’ll be at the following site:
