Is there a proper way to adjust the kickdown linkage???? I installed a highrise aluminum intake and 4bbl carb on my 72 Satellite, 318cid, 904 trans. The kickdown is controlled by a rod with a slotted end attached to the linkage that I had to reshape to compensate for the taller intake. I just cant seem to get my shift points back to normal. Also dont remember was there a spring to hold that kickdown linkage forward when the throttle is closed????????

I just put a 360 4bbl intake and a Edelbrock 600 on mine and now I have to get the 4 bbl kickdown linkage from a 318 car. A Friend brother helped by going to the Junkyard to get one for me.

That would be a great idea. One of us mods can make it a sticky too.

OutlawCuda

If the posts dont work let me know and I will try something else. Sorry for the delay. I am not to sharp with this computer stuff. The info is from 70 and 76 service manuals.

I have a 4" high rise and I used a Lokar setup. When I did the adjustment I made small ones until I had the passing gear kick in when the secondaries opened. It works pretty sweet. The only problem I ran into was a slight stall at that point but a MSD set up cured that. All for about $225
