Apparently it's "California push and pull". But apparently there are three sizes available. I'll keep looking to see if I can find the proper length, hopefully someone else knows that answer. I'd also like to complete this swap when my getrag kicks the bucket.

Cheers.

If you contact them they have listed a Fiero select cable and an F23 cable for the shift that works

They have it narrowed down to just one? I believe I read it was only 110$ as well.

I am reworking the swap from the F23 tutorial that L67 did and his shift cable really should be 3-4" longer. The bend going into the shifter bracket is about at tight as it possibly can be and the cable just barely fits.

I never took the cable out to measure it, but I could possibly come up with the current length.

I lengthened some stock five speed cables and it was fairly simple. I wish I knew how to post pics with a tablet though.

I've been trying to find the answer to this question for 2 years now.. I get many people who say they will check and get back to me but none ever do. I contacted California Push and Pull and they wanted to know what length I needed.. I did not (and still do not) have a 100% sure answer as of yet..

Actually the more I look into it, the more confused I get. Now I’m not even certain about the select cable.

well I think I can semi-help.... there are so many bracket variations, and most people making their own, that there is NO actual answer to this question.... until someone makes an actual kit with full measurements and such, there will not be an answer to this question.

TBH, I think I have an idea, not sure how it will work, but it involves something like the WCF auto shift bracket, going to talk to a friend who does fab work this weekend, might be a total bust as I don't have the trans yet to play with.
