Though what are you hoping to achieve, as the 2.5 plenum is better suited to the 2.5...

G cams have been fitted so was advised to fit the longer plenum, will both cables need changing?

Yes as the mountings are in the same place but the throttle body is 4"+ further forward :y

Do they work?
You could easily move the cruise control motor forward a bit to gain some slack.
