Throttle Cable Ext. Kit - GM

The Edelbrock Throttle Cable Extension Kit for GM vehicles (part number 8012) is a precision linkage extension designed to accommodate throttle and transmission kickdown cable routing on General Motors engines. This extension is particularly useful for those installing aftermarket carburetors, fuel injection systems, or modified intake manifolds that alter the stock cable geometry.

Manufactured from cadmium-plated steel, the extension provides corrosion resistance and longevity, which is critical in engine bays where moisture and heat cycling can accelerate oxidation. Its lightweight design (0.11 lbs) and compact dimensions (1.65 x 1.2 x 5.1 inches) allow for seamless integration into tight engine compartments without adding bulk or weight. The steel construction ensures rigidity under load, preventing cable slack or unintended throttle fluctuation during acceleration or deceleration cycles.

Engine builders and technicians rely on this extension when relocating throttle anchor points or when transmission kickdown cables require extended routing to maintain proper engagement angles. It's an essential component for stroker builds, engine swaps, and carburetor conversions on Chevy small-block and big-block platforms, as well as other GM powerplants.
