Ok, you guys that are using the E34 throttle cable, give me some insight here. Engine is in the car, as well as the E34 throttle cable. Everything seems fine, it's just that the overall length of the cable seems long. Does the extra length just kind of swoop down and out of the way? Obviously as long as the linkage is hooked up, it doesn't really matter how long it is, it's just not a straight shot from the firewall to the throttle linkage.

Originally posted by Janderson View PostYeah, mine comes out the firewall and swoops down near the ABS hardlines, and then back up to the throttle linkage. I was just curious if other people have seen the same thing with the E34 cable.
