The standard throttle cable is 820mm, for just about all the T'Birds, Legend and later model Adventurer, as I found out when I recently did the reverse of what you're doing.
Don't know about the bars you're going for but my guess is you'll have plenty of room in the wiring and speedo cable. Not sure about the clutch and front brake hoses though as I've had mine made to order.

I put ZRX-1100/1200 bars on my Legend and the cables all fit.

I put a set of O'Neil racing bars on mine, no problem with the cables.
