Hey so I just put in a new FMS King Cobra Clutch set into my mostly stock 5.0. I was wondering if I should spend more and get an aftermarket clutch cable. I need to replace it either way.

Aftermarket ones often have an adjustable screw on the end. Do I really need that or will it just make things more complicated? I do not have a firewall adjuster or anything. I had a firewall adjuster on my last car and ended up stripping 2 clutch cables because I think I had it adjusted wrong.

I have a small budget but having a good cable can make life much better.

What should I get? Thanks guys!

I'm still using the original factory clutch cable after 280,000 miles, 200,000 miles on the original factory clutch, 75,000 miles on a king cobra clutch, and the last 5,000 miles on a Spec 1 clutch. I've had no reason to change.....

Short answer, No.

Long answer, Avoid aftermarket cables regardless of your setup. The stock cable is the best cable bar none. You can run it with the plastic stock quadrant (duh) and aftermarket billet quadrants and firewall adjusters.
