choke cable, replace or repair???

Wanted to add about the different lengths, in case someone comes across this. Not sure about all the years but I do know that cables from the earlier series consoles, the ones with the solid plate and dual slots, do have a longer cable setup. I tried to replace my cables in my 4/71 with the cables from a later 72 and they do fit but its so snug I dont get a nice curve around to the carb holders and running them under the console is rough. Will it work for now, yeah, but I know Ill have problems later with binding. Going to order me up some longer ones soon.
