Correct length speedo cable ?
 
I have converted my '67 Camaro from PG to Muncie and am attempting to get a correct length cable to run in the original location it would have. This seems to be more difficult than it should be. I can't find a definite answer and get anywhere from 62"-71".

The AIM indicates the part number as 6454863 and searching that still comes up with conflicting info and lengths.
Looking for correct length and info on where to obtain it.
Thanks SYC

No one has needed to replace an original Muncie cable and found one close to the correct length ?

61 to 63 inches, depending on who you believe.

Yep, I read all that, Tony, but since it was for a '69, wasn't certain if the length was different with the screw on end at the speedo,vs the snap on end ...
I've been looking at vendors for a 63" cable and they don't seem to exist.
I have one here that is a hair over 61", but I think it was on the car when I got it and it was a little too short with the Powerglide. Maybe it will be OK with the Muncie in the new location? It has a paint mark 29" from the trans end that may be the locator referenced to in the AIM for the center clamp.
I have a Balkamp replacement now that is 75" and I'd like to get a shorter one.
