Default how to adjust throttle cable?

i bought an aftermarket throttle body (80mm professional products) it has an adapter plate/spacer if using w/ the stock intake manifold. just about done but the throttle cable is a tad short (because of the adapter plate/spacer).
is there a way to adjust the throttle cable?
thanks.

i tried a search but the only results were from the ls1 camaros.

Yes.

About 12" back on the cable itself from the throttle body, there is a throttle cable housing to adjust slack. Slide the lock clip on the housing open. move the housing to allow slack. Slide the lock clip back to the closed position.

Very easy.
