Description
Throttle Cable – 1968–1972 Chevelle El Camino Sprint Monte Carlo Big Block V8 & L6 | OE-Style Replacement | X-Parts by AMD
Restore smooth and reliable throttle operation with this OE-style Accelerator/Throttle Cable for 1968–1972 Chevrolet Chevelle, Malibu, El Camino, Sprint, and Monte Carlo models. Designed for select 396, 402, 427, and 454 big block V8 applications with Quadrajet carburetors, this high-quality reproduction cable also fits 1970–1972 Chevelle, El Camino, and Sprint inline 6-cylinder models.
Manufactured to accurately replicate the original factory throttle cable, this reproduction features the correct overall length, fittings, and factory-style construction for dependable accelerator response and proper fitment. Measuring approximately 23.5 inches in length, this cable is engineered for OE-style installation and smooth throttle pedal operation.
Original throttle cables commonly become stretched, frayed, binding, or damaged after decades of use, causing inconsistent throttle response or poor drivability. This replacement cable helps restore proper accelerator function while maintaining authentic factory appearance for restoration and replacement applications.
Designed for classic Chevrolet A-body and GM intermediate models, this throttle cable is ideal for restoration projects, engine bay refurbishments, or replacing worn original accelerator cables.
Replaces GM part# 396454 and 3972679.
Offered as an X-Parts component by AMD, this throttle cable delivers the fit, appearance, and functionality expected for premium GM restoration work.
