Installing an 89 5.0 Fi into my 1979 Zephyr.
But i'm taking off the FI and putting a Fitech unit on.
What throttle cable do I get ?
Thanks

Get a throttle cable that works for a carb model. The FiTech is essentially a carb in that regard.
I did have to trim/drill a mounting bracket to make it work, but it was easy. I used an Edelbrock intake which made the throttle cable bracket sit at the wrong angle. I just redrilled the bracket so I could mount it all inline.
Since your '79 had a carb to begin with the same cable should work (if your original motor was a V8. Not sure if the I4 or 6 had the same throttle cable.)
