Description
Throttle Cable – 1968–1972 Chevelle Malibu El Camino | 1970–1972 Monte Carlo | 1971–1972 GMC Sprint | Small Block 327-350 4-BBL V8 | OE-Style Replacement | X-Parts by AMD
Restore smooth and dependable throttle operation with this OE-style Accelerator/Throttle Cable for 1968–1972 Chevrolet Chevelle, Malibu, and El Camino, 1970–1972 Chevrolet Monte Carlo, and 1971–1972 GMC Sprint models equipped with 327 or 350 small block 4-barrel V8 engines. This high-quality reproduction cable is designed to accurately replicate the original factory accelerator cable for proper fitment and operation.
Manufactured to factory specifications, this replacement throttle cable extends from the carburetor linkage to the accelerator pedal lever, providing smooth throttle response and reliable accelerator operation. Original cables commonly become stretched, frayed, binding, or damaged over time, leading to inconsistent throttle feel and poor drivability.
Engineered for OE-style installation and authentic factory appearance, this reproduction cable is ideal for restoration projects, engine compartment refurbishments, or replacing worn original throttle linkage components on classic GM A-body and G-body muscle cars.
Replaces GM part# 3973862.
Offered as an X-Parts component by AMD, this throttle cable delivers the fit, appearance, and functionality expected for premium GM restoration work.
