Need part number for a 5.3 Throttle Cable Bracket

I'm assisting in swapping a DBW 5.3 into an 85 K10, but hes converting to a drive by cable set up. We have the correct cable, TB, gas pedal, but we need the throttle cable bracket! Can't find the part number anywhere, can't find any for sale, and all the pictures are grainy or don't show the full part number! Can anyone please help?

Re: Need part number for a 5.3 Throttle Cable Bracket

Oh! And I'm also looking on how to hook up the factory vacuum cruise control in a 1979 K5 to a drive by cable 5.3 LS?

Thanks a bunch!

In for the answer as well. I need one of these as well. The bracket that holds the throttle cable.

It is GM part #89017380 which lists for about $25.

Number "11" in the diagram at the link below.

I haven't ordered from them but their parts diagrams do come in handy They don't offer much of a discount, so I'd probably just use my local GM/Chevy dealer.

Re: Need part number for a 5.3 Throttle Cable Bracket

I cut a piece of aluminum "L" extrusion, drilled some bolt holes to it, and clamped the throttle cable to it with a cable clamp. Used a 3' mountain bike brake cable with one knarp end for a throttle cable. Works great.
