    Ok, for future reference the cruise cable is adjustable. Right at the end is a little clip that you pull out and adjust.

    Not sure of the adjustability, but I ended up using the one from the donor truck. I took the entire cruise control box and cable, mounted it and wired it, only to find out the donor box was not functioning. I took my original cruise control box cover off, and swapped cables from the donor box to my original box. Problem solved. The donor cable was definitely longer than my original cable.

    Just went out and took a look at mine and it also is not sitting on the set screw. Looks like Ill be hitting the salvage yard to get a throttle and cruise cable from a 2001 truck or suburban.

    I literally raped the '99 Silverado 2500 for everything I needed for the swap. Engine, PCM, harness, coolant bottle, etc. Right down to the exhaust system and cruise control. Vortec and TBI injected traditional small blocks have shorter cables due to the cable running to the center of the engine, not to the front like the LS Vortec engines.
