Looking for this for a 1991 corvette L98 Engine.

I checked Ecklers... and it's discontinued there.

Is this where the cable meets the throttle?

If so, a Camaro part SHOULD do it.

It's the plastic retainer clip that sticks out from the side of the plenum on an L98 engine. (Apx. 4-5 inches back from the throttle.) It's just used to keep your throttle and Cruise Control cables straight when coming off the throttle.

Yea, Camaro has that part, too. I would reach out to Chris May at Superior. The GM part number I have is 8917256. I think it is old.

This is the piece that screws into the side of the intake manifold and holds the cable in place.

Several left in the dealer network. Even though it is a discontinued item.

Closest dealership for you is Watson in AZ (520) 292-1500
Or Jerry SPady GM in Nebraska (402) 463-4000

Andy, there are two pieces. One is a bolt that goes into the manifold with a long shaft on the "head" side, the other is a plastic loom that slips over that piece. Looks like that part number is for the plastic loom, and was used in several cars of the era. Can't comment on availability.
