Hi Guys, Which throttle cable do you use when converting to a c20xe ? as Ive heard people seem to have different ideas on this? A part no would be great but not essential, any help appreciated, thanks.

Bearing in mind the XE cables are different lengths... Mine is a bit short. Not sure what car it came from though.

yeah, so i thought it would depend on the linkage type as to what cable he would need

Hmm, he just says "when converting to c20xe"
So assumed std xe.

For carbs, just use a normal throttle cable off ebay for about 3quid

My apologies chaps I should have been more specific... yes Its a genuine weber LP1000 linkage..... Adam do you just mean a std nova throttle cable then?
