Longer Throttle Cable

Anybody know of a source/part # for a longer throttle cable? I fitted a 2bbl carb to my I-6 300 and the stock throttle cable is a few inches too short. (story of my life)

'86 F250 4x4 I-6 300

Thx - DORN

The pioneer cable ca-8459 is for the 6.9 liter diesel engines in the mid 80's and it is 10 inches longer than the stock cable. This from autozoo

I purchased an aftermarket from LoKar that is (I think) 32 inches!
