Help/Wtd MK Indy Pinto Clutch Cable

After finally getting my newly built engine sorted i stated to put a few miles on it to run it in.

That was untill my clutch cable snapped last night Luckily less then half a mile away from my house.

After ringing MK up today and talking to a few people im still not sure exactley what cable it was, ive been told Transit, Sierra, Cortina and Capri.

Below is a picture I found on the internet with no part number but it is exactley the same. It measures approx 770mm from the end of each threaded end and 870mm long cable (type 9 ball to eyelet).


If anyone can identify this cable or if anyone one has one going spare it would help alot.

Thanks

Steve

This of any use?

On hindsight it appears a little longer than yours, but may be a good place to start.

Also, The 1.6 ohc transit are quite short and have the same cable ends, but have different adjusters.

Mine is a Capri one, but I don't know the part number. Sounds about the right length.
