    I went to the junk yard found one about the length i needed spliced the stock one so i could use the OEM fitting on the pedal done. Cost me $3 and an hour of time. However since your in canada you could just order online http://www.summitracing.com/parts/lo...ht36/overview/

            I had to use two large diameter washers to lock it to the firewall
            I painted those black.

            Honestly if there was a 40" or so length it would look better
            It has the length as is. But it runs a little diagonal across the motor.

            It comes with the correct connector to attach directly to the throttle body
            nice mine should be here this week... hope to drop motor n trans in next weekend waiting on my slave cly fittings
