57 speedo and tach cable length?

[Bruce B.]

Can someone tell me the correct overall length for these cables in a 4 speed, generator driven tach 57 Corvette?
Thanks in advance.

Bruce, Does the AIM list the part numbers? I don't have a '57 AIM handy.

Ideally actual measurements are best, but these pages may help......or may confuse the issue.

Is your generator on the DS or PS ?

Tach Cable:

56-62 (Ex FI HL Cam) which would denote Gen driven tach 3480374 (looks like it says 68") (but hard to read)

Speedo Cable:
I'm thoroughly confused about this page.

I have a 1929-1959 P & A Catalog I can check which may narrow down some of this. I'll check it later.

Bruce, my original tach cable is 38 3/4" long. The casing is 37 1/4" long.

I don't have time to pull the speedometer cable today. Somebody must have this.
