Adjusting Three Peice Kickdown Linkage
So scrounging around, I found the kickdown linkage that we pulled with the motor and trans from a 78 LeBaron 318. This 318 had a 4 barrel setu , and this is the upper kickdown rod:
Looks like somebody probably made a small modification so they had more adjustment for a 4 barrel.
This is the rod in comparison to what I have now. It doesn't have a bend in it, it's straight across. From trying to find appropriate pictures, it looks like a small block, 4 barrel rod should have some sort of bend to it? I'm sure there's more than a few small blocks running modified 2 barrel linkage.
They're super close in length, I can't imagine this would cause all this trouble. I'm gonna recheck band adjustment tomorrow for my own sake, and I'll dig deeper if need be. Sunday I'll have another person to help me out,hopefully to find one or more issues.
