The first style of TV cable (the one you want) - https://amzn.to/31Up17f
The cables come in different length, the second one in the video is adjustable, making it universal - https://amzn.to/2VWIuk4
They have several options for the bracket closest to the firewall - https://amzn.to/2Z7Zupz

Its easy to do but a lot of people don't know how to adjust it and you'll wreck your tranny if the TV cable isn't adjusted right.
- The cable should be fully extended at wide open throttle.
- If you are using a carb you need the correct bracket to adjust the length of the throw or you are just wasting your time trying to adjust it.
- The second cable in the video sucks. Its such a PITA to attach at the transmission that I am leaving it until the cable ticks me off enough to get the better, first style in the video. The only good thing about the second cable is the length is adjustable. It has a compression fitting and you can make it longer or shorter to fit your application.
