Yep...had the same problem with mine. No matter how I adjusted the linkage there was not enough pedal travel for the car to idle right or go full throttle. I fixed mine by pulling the carpet back some and putting some aluminum shims under the bracket that mounts the pedal to the floor pan thus...

Memike, sound like you got a lot of good info here. One more thing you will need to look for is a new throttle set up as the 1 barrel uses a rod type and the 2 barrel uses the cable type. You will need one off a 63-66 a body with a V8. You will have to drill new holes to mount it up, but if the...

Just as a side point, you better check out the throttle linkage.../6 uses a bizarre mechanical linkage. v8s had a cable. I am looking for a cable setup too...

The slant six throttle cable is going to be longer, and I think the sleeve on the moving portion of the cable is longer as well, which limits the travel - I think. I used a slant 6 cable on one of my cars because the intake was taller and I need more length. I cut the sleeve down using a...

Really hard to say right now. My current A body is a '66 with rod linkage. I have a cable throttle assembly that I got off Ebay for 10 bucks. I would post a pic of it so you could get an idea what the mounting plate looks like, but for some reason the disc from my hard drive exited the tower...

I swapped my six for a 360. I've been working through the problems that come up but I thought I'd read the throttle cable for the six would work. It looks way to long, so is there a difference between the six and the V8 cars? I'm using the Thermo-quad with a Edelbrock Performer manifold. Thanks...

Steve, Welcome to the world of superior engineering! Here's what you need to do.... 1. Find somebody to trade you a small block 904 transmission for that heavy over-kill-for-a-360 727. You'll save weight, horsepower and clearance, and will pick up probably a car length and a half...

Here is todays work.I have added a Ede performer with a Ede 600 The car was originally a 318 2bbl. I bought the Ede chrysler throttle/kickdown bracket you can see it in the pic.The problem is now the linkage/throttle cable wont work.Nothing lines up properly.I know about lokar but for the time...

Hi all. I have been asked by several members about details and pictures on my 68 Barracuda project (round 3) and though I am in the final stages of the major transformation of this old friend I finally have some pictures and a few minutes so here it is... First the long background. I was 15...

The good news is, you don't have to swap the K member. 273 brackets and insulators will bolt in a 273 or 318. If you want a 340 or 360 you will need conversion mounts (Schumacher comes to mind) and the aforementioned center link. Don't forget the 90 degree oil filter adapter and 273 exhaust...

Call me a liar if you wish but I just did the swap not 2 months ago so I know what I'm talking about. I actually think a /6 to V8 swap would be more costly since you definiately have to change front brakes and rear axle. Many SB cars came with front disk brakes and some even came with 8 3/4"...

i know u can put an egr block off plate on, i did it to my six when i had it, i just cut the egr line off pinched it together then brazed it shut worked really good :) What year of car do you have, if its the old non cable design(lever) you will need a cable, im unsure about if the cables are...

grumpuscreature, thank you for the reply, I do have 273 manifolds, brackets and the 90 oil adaptor, I also have a tranny, drive shaft an a rear end from a 69 dart, will this work?. What shifter can I use? would one from a later A body work? I'm new to 64-66 a bodys, so I can use all the help I...

Hold up...Iam not calling you a lliar. I called you on it cause I wanted to see how it costs the same. There are alot of parts on your list that I didn't include on my list So if I add all the stuff (blue typing above)you put on your car onto a BB build the New total would...
