Spurtar 36" LS Braided Throttle Cable Kit Stainless Steel

Spurtar's 36" LS braided throttle cable kit is an adjustable, stainless-steel-lined replacement designed to restore smooth, reliable throttle action on 1997–2007 Chevrolet LS1 engines.

This kit supplies a 36-inch throttle cable with aluminum fittings, a braided 304 stainless-steel outer housing and a service-length inner liner so you can repair or customize throttle routing on classic and swapped LS1 engines. Built to resist fraying and wear, the assembly includes the small tools and hardware needed for a straightforward installation and trim-to-fit adjustments.

Will this throttle cable fit my Chevy LS1 application?

Yes — the Spurtar kit is made to suit a broad range of LS1 installations across model years and displacements. It covers 1997–2004 Chevrolet LS1 5.7L engines and 1999–2007 LS1 4.8L, 5.3L, and 6.0L engines, and its trim-to-length design lets you adapt it to most pedal locations and throttle bodies.

• Compatible model years: 1997–2004 (5.7L) and 1999–2007 (4.8/5.3/6.0L).
• 36" overall cable length before trimming for custom routing.
• Adjustable end fittings to match OEM or aftermarket throttle linkages.

How durable is the braided stainless-steel housing?

The outer braid uses 304-grade stainless steel to shield the inner liner from abrasion, heat and grime — improving longevity and appearance compared with plain plastic housings. Internal aluminum ferrules and an extruded lining minimize internal wear and prevent stray wires from fraying, for smoother throttle response over time.

• 304 stainless braid resists corrosion and road debris damage.
• Aluminum fittings and ferules prevent terminal fray and loosening.
• Service-length inner liner reduces friction and extends cable life.

What tools and parts are included, and is installation difficult?

The kit arrives ready for a DIY install: the 36" cable, a small wrench, a user manual and a pair of gloves are included. The cable is designed to be trimmed to the required length and secured with the supplied fittings; basic mechanical skills and common hand tools are usually all you need.

• Included: 36" throttle cable, wrench, user manual, gloves.
• Trim-to-fit length for custom engine bay routing.
• Straightforward hand-tool installation — no specialty equipment required.

How does this cable improve throttle feel and maintenance?

Replacing a worn or frayed throttle cable with the Spurtar braided kit reduces binding and slack, yielding crisper and more predictable pedal action. The protective braid and reinforced internals lower the chance of sudden failure and make future servicing simpler.

• Reduces friction for smoother pedal travel and responsiveness.
• Braided housing preserves cable integrity in harsh engine environments.
• Easy to inspect and replace compared with factory-smaller cables.

Who this is for: mechanics, restorers and DIY enthusiasts working on Chevrolet LS1-powered cars and swaps who need a reliable, serviceable throttle cable. If you’re updating a tired original cable, performing an engine swap with non-standard pedal geometry, or simply want a durable stainless-steel appearance under the hood, this adjustable Spurtar kit delivers a practical, bolt-on solution.
