PQY 36" Stainless Braided LS Swap Throttle Cable Kit for Chevy LS1 5.3L — Cut-to-Fit, Corrosion-Resistant

PQY's 36" stainless braided LS swap throttle cable kit is a direct-fit, cut-to-fit replacement designed to deliver smooth, no-bind throttle operation for Chevy LS1 engines including 4.8L, 5.3L, 5.7L and 6.0L applications.

This throttle cable kit gives you a durable, corrosion-resistant control line for engine conversions, swaps, or stock replacement. Built from stainless steel braid around a low-friction extruded liner, the cable is long enough for a variety of engine bay layouts and can be trimmed to length for custom routing. The package includes the 36" cable and an Allen wrench so you can install or adjust the assembly quickly; PQY also offers matching brackets separately for mounting solutions.

Will this PQY throttle cable fit my Chevy LS1 swap?

Yes — the cable is intended to work with a range of LS-series engines and common throttle pedal setups. Its 36" length accommodates most swap distances and the outer braid plus extruded liner ensure compatibility with typical throttle arms and pedal linkages.

• Compatible engines: Chevrolet/Chevy LS1 5.7L (97–04) and LS1 4.8/5.3/6.0L (99–07).
• Trim-to-fit design: cut the cable to match your routing and linkage length.
• Works with most gas pedals and aftermarket throttle assemblies.

How durable and smooth is the cable in daily or performance use?

The cable combines a stainless steel braided outer jacket with a specially extruded low-friction inner liner, giving long wear life and consistent, no-bind motion. That construction resists corrosion, shields the liner from abrasion, and keeps cable response predictable under repeated use.

• Stainless steel braid resists rust in harsh environments.
• Extruded liner reduces friction and extends service life.
• Engineered for smooth operation during frequent throttle cycles.

What comes in the kit and what extra parts might I need?

The kit ships with one 36" braided throttle cable and one Allen wrench for basic mounting or adjustment. Depending on your swap, you may also want a throttle cable bracket or specific end fittings; PQY sells matching brackets separately to simplify mounting to firewall or throttle bodies.

• Included: 1 × 36-inch braided throttle cable, 1 × Allen wrench.
• Optional: PQY throttle cable bracket (sold separately) for secure mounting.
• Cut-to-fit capability lets you add your preferred end fittings or adapters.

How do I install and customize the cable length safely?

Installation is straightforward for anyone comfortable with basic mechanical tasks: route the cable along the chosen path, attach the throttle and pedal ends, and trim the excess to ensure full throttle travel without binding. Use a quality cable cutter, re-seat the liner in its end fittings, and verify pedal travel and return spring clearance before finalizing fasteners.

• Routethe cable avoiding sharp edges and hot exhaust components.
• Cut with a proper tool and protect the liner ends inside fittings.
• Confirm smooth full-travel and return without interference before driving.

Who is this for: This PQY 36" stainless LS swap throttle cable kit is ideal for mechanics, hobbyists, and performance builders doing LS engine swaps or replacing worn OEM cables. It suits owners who want a corrosion-resistant, easily shortened cable that offers reliable, smooth throttle action without needing a fully custom-fabricated control line.
