Mike,
I just put one in a 1978 Magnum and used the standard cable.
Make sure you install the shifter as far forward as you can (this will
give you more room).  The bend at the front is VERY tight.  I'll be the
guys at B&M are chevy people.  

Also, I have already (after about 50 miles) had to replace the cable
because it melted near the headers.  It was about 4 inches away, but
that was too close.  I think the cables are really junk.  I called them
and they said they didn't have anything that would take higher
temperatures, they say you have to make a heat shield.  I guess they
figure people who use B&M shifters won't want to use headers.  

Regards,
Ken

Subject: help with cable

This is a little off subject, But I have a 74 duster 
360cu. and 727 trans.I installed a B&M hammer
shifter,TTI headers. Putting the cable in is a night
mare. I have two cables 8ft HD and the standard 5
foot. Anyone been there done that.
