I can vouch for this. I bought a non-OD cable, since I don't have
overdrive, but it was too short, because I also don't have the right
angle adaptors at the tranny or the gauge. I got it to fit, but
barely. I had to route it up into the passenger compartment through
the tranny dipstick access hole. The next time, I just bought the OD
cable, and the ends were the same. It's just a little bit longer,
and was a much better fit.
