E-Brake cables

Replacing the torque tube driveline and rear end with a 12 bolt Chevy rear end from a 68 Camaro and a 700R4 auto trans. Anyone know what e-brake cables that I can use for a clean conversion? This is in my 52 Chevy 1/2 ton.. Thanks

Re: E-Brake cables

Just wanted to follow up with results for anyone interested.. I followed solidaxles advice and called Control Cable Inc in southern California... They hooked me up with custom cables for my application for a reasonible price and they fit perfectly.. They were shipped to my house in less than a week.
