? about throttle body cables.

[2814v]

I have been looking at SVTF's for a few weeks and noticed something. The two cables that come from just above the TB. Some SVTF's have one short looping cable and one long, all the way over the valve covers. I am guessing they are the throttle cable and traction control ?
My old 03 had two short looping cables, about the same lengh. All the 04 I have looked at have the two short, while the 03 seem to be split. Half short half long. When was the change made, I am guessing it was done to clean up the look under the hood. Is there any advantage to have one over the other, besides one type is most likely newer.
Sorry for this seemingly off the wall question, but it is bothering me.

I have an 04 SVTF, I'll look at mine and get back to you.

What he said! :rockon:

The traction control is done by retarding the timing and actuating the ABS.

Right, I forgot they had cruise control. I dont think I used mine much.

So why are the lenghs differant and is the long one on some 03's the cruise control?

The longer one is the throttle cable, and the shorter one is the cruise control (the CC box is mounted to the firewall right behind the intake manifold.
