Adjusting Three Peice Kickdown Linkage

That’s the wrong top rod, but u already know that as u say u have the 4bbl linkage. For gods sake put it on b4 u ruin ur tranny. The governor is sticking. Kim

See? There is a reason why I post here. I THOUGHT this was the complete 4 barrel linkage on my car. That's what I was sold anyways. I didn't know the top rod was big block. I think you misunderstood my post : the 4 barrel linkage I thought was on my car as I have no reason to keep it off. Looking at the video, it looks like the top rod is too short to be the proper 4 barrel small block rod? I'm not trying to ruin my trans, it's sitting parked until I can make some form of adjustment.

I agree. Carb. rod looks odd. Here's a good video on YouTube that explains the adjustment quite well. Good luck.


I've watched this video a lot. When they say they "push the trans lever forward", is "forward" towards the bellhousing or towards the tailshaft?
