Default LS VTEC ISSUES!!

alright the deal is i have a 97 civic hb with b18c head, b20b block. (gsr hear, crv block) known as the crvtec or lsvtec take your pick. anyways when i bought the car, the throttle cable was NOT sitting on a mount but instead zip tied to a fuel line. The cable is from an acura LS for some reason and is too long. I cannot adjust the tension for 2 reasons, it is too long and there is no mounting bracket. the spindle where the cable is winded up is there on the throttle body. Ive called honda and acura dealers and honda specific shops but no one can help me.

some of the cables i have heard to use are...

99-00 civic si
97 civic hb
integ grs
94 del sol b16 vtec

as the list shows, people have a wide range of opinions. i also need the mounting bracket so that poses even more problems...if anyone can help me i would greatly appreciate some feed back.

thanks,
steve

if you have a gsr intake manifold and t/b, then go to acura and get the cable mounting bracket for the gsr t/b, and you should be able to use the original civic cable
