Default Top Gun Help needed

My shift cable kinked under the lever and it appears to be beyond repair. The boat is a 2001 top gun t/s, what length shift cable will it need and where do I get it?? Also, is there a resistance adjustment on the throttles?? They are kinda stiff. I used to have a cable luber for my MX bikes, is there such a thing for these??

If you look close at the cables were you can see them you should be able to see a foot marker on them. I am willing to bet that when you get the new ones in there they will move eisier.

I have a tension adjuster on my Gaffrig Throttle. I think you probably have Marine Machine's though.

Audio, I doubt his THROTTLE lever tension will change by replacing a SHIFTER cable

The motors are long gone. I am going to look at maybe adding a pair of blower motors over the winter and some big drives. I would like to run in the 100's but not at the expense of reliability (within reason!).
