Default Throttle cable

Apparently basic questions are unwelcome in other parts of the forum... I need to know which throttle cable I am going to use for my 1994 LS1 conversion. It will be a non trac control version however I do not know what year throttle body I've got. Running Vic Jr. with ultra low profile elbow.

Will the NON TCS LS1 Throttle Cable work? That is what I'm going to be switching the one I currently have to.

I checked it out on Summit and I'm not sure if it's a generic pic or what but it does fit the stock TB?

Lokar TC-1000LS1 fits the stock LS1 throttle body.

Excellent. Does it have a little bit of adjustment cuz I'm not sure how the Vic Jr and elbow are gonna sit in relation to where stock would be.

The Lokar cable is cut-to-fit. You cut the housing to the length you need, then run the inner cable through the housing, bolt on (set screw) the knub that hooks in to the throttle arm, and then clip off the excess cable. You can easily adapt it to any bracket setup as long as the bracket is at least 2 inches or so behind the throttle body.
