Anyone have a photo or diagram of speedo cable routing on a 71RR? Seems like the way I have run it there is a lot of excess cable!!! But it’s only long on one end !!!(LOL). Any diagrams out there? POPS
 
Is it the correct cable ? Is it routed through the firewall correctly ? Is it contoured without kinked/bent, away from the exhaust ?
 
Yes,pretty straight shot from rear of cluster through hole in firewall.Making a nice looping bend away from everything down under into holder clip on floor pan,just seem to have excess cable.O.K. How long should the cable be? Sure not the first time wrong cable sold.
 
Just looked it up.My cable is in fact 12” to long (on one end)
Thanks for the reply.

Glad you figured that out. I've run a speedometer cable that was too long before. It seems like it's OK & might even be helpful if you need some extra length to get past headers or something, but if it's "too long" it can kink & bind.
