    Use the cable from the engine donor truck. The 90 cable will be too short.
    1992 rcsb 5.3 lm7, NV3500
    2012 corvette vert, ls3
    Both tuned by me with HP Tuners

    I was advised to use a cable from a 1998 silverado on my 1990 and it worked great!

    What he said. ^^^^^

    The 98 cable is longer and it will fit like it should.

    What about the bracket? does anybody know if they make an aftermarket bracket? or should I get one out of a certain year?

    The regular ol cable 5.3/6.0 cable bracket that goes on the intake will work, and as the others said, a vortec 305/350 cable.
