Re: Throttle & Shift Cable Lentgh??
Jeremy,
The cabling you'll need to order is essentially the length of the outer housing of your current cables; anchor point to anchor point and not overall length. Take into account the adjustment capabilities on either end. If there's any question in your mind order the next longer length. If you can get within 6 to 12 inches of the outer cable with confidence, that will be the one you want to order.
If there remains a question in your mind and there is room or space to lay up an extra foot or two of cable, then order the next longer length. I don't believe you said whether or not you have the center console or scepter. Personally, I have a scepter. Just guessing, 2 feet from the throttle binnacle to gunnel plus 13 feet to transom plus 4 feet to mid ships plus 3 to 4 feet to carburetor and 3 feet to transmission would suggest 22 and 24 foot gear shift and throttle cable length in my case. Do yourself a favor and measure your current cables; anchor point to anchor point.
