Question for guys who installed a supercharger

I'm new to these bikes, I just bought my valkyrie last fall. The previous owner installed the super charger. I'm gearing up to buy taller bars and looking into all the parts needed. Most of that is pretty straightforward, I've done a bar swap before, but because I don't have a point if reference, never having taken a look at a non blown valks throttle cable, I'm wondering if any of the more knowledgeable members here know if its the stock cable that attaches to the SC or if it's a whole different end. If it's the same then it's a pretty simple overstock order to make online, if it's different I have more info to try and dig up on the SC before I can buy what I need.

There are two different carb setups depending on the generation blower that you have. It's either a Harley Davidson or a flat-slide Mikuni carburetor. I can only speak for the Mikuni as it's what I have. The cable end at the carb has a lead cylinder on it just like you see on the stock Valk. The blower kit doesn't come with cables so I assume it's OEM. My Mikuni only uses the pull cable and not the push.

Thx. I'll have to get the tank off when I get the chance to check it out then.

Correction: I pulled my tank today and Lo-and-behold I was remembering things wrong. The Mikuni uses Push-pull cables. Both cables have leaded cylinder ends and they do look like stock cables.
