Throttle linkage kickdown bracket questions
When lifting my carb with a 1" spacer, I had trouble getting the kick-down to kick down when it was supposed to, it wasn't shifting right. I put a nut and bolt through the slot behind the throttle rod and adjusted its position until it functioned properly. From the amount you have your kick-down adjusted all the way out it looks like, you may want to try this trick. I also had to use a return spring which I made a speparate bracket for to pull the kick-down lever forward to hit the nut and bolt. It was like a 1/4" or a 5/16" bolt/nut combination with washers on both sides. I can shoot a pic if your interested. I couldn't get it to shift correctly any other way.
