turbo 350 throttle valve kickdown cable

My turbo 350 kickdown cable has a stiff bent wire to attach it to the transmission linkage, did I buy the wrong one, the new one on the cardboard just has a hole in it.
Anyone know of a part that would work? thanks

That's not even right. You should be able to buy the detent cable anywhere, possibly even from the dealer. Here's one available from NAPA-

Re: turbo 350 throttle valve kickdown cable

The bent metal rod stays in the transmission, and the bent end goes through the hole at the end of the new cable.

I sure hope you got the right one. It looks bling and all, but I find aftermarket parts so sketchy for quality and fitment.
