Joe I don't have access to the ONE N.O.S. one I had, as it was sold to a friend with a 77 V-8 Gremlin. He was running the 6cly cable. The V-8 cable was VERY short. So much so I thought is was Not long enough. It was and worked, so the cable you got sounds wrong. My friend is in the middle east, and wont be back for months or I would get him to measure for you.
