Does anyone know offhand the length of the speedometer cable for a Car without cruise control? SRH9391 was originally delivered in England. I might have an opportunity to get a new cable and sheath at a great price if I can identify it.

I have some info: the Shadow from 1968 through 1970, pre-speed control, used Smith's DF1104/36 cable. It is 6 feet 2 inches long, and has two rubber grommets to seal the bulkhead passages, and they are approx 1.5 inches plus the diameter of the sheath, in diameter.
There is a source in Canada: vintagebritishcables.com from which I plan to buy a cable. Thanks to them for this information.
