I am having picture issues today.....
Stop in for a cup of coffee

Here we go. How much tension or preload is there on the slide at idle? You should be able to slide it off the pin at idle and it shouldn't be under pressure. (the pin should "just barely" drag on the back of the slot at idle.)
That might help.
Of course the reason I did not use adjustable rod in the first place is it is to short. Have to modify it some...
Thats hot rodding baby!!!!
Wish someone with a full unmolested set of 727 and 904 linkage and bellcranks would measure and share the lengths. of the different bits.
This from the 1971 MTSC number2

Install it from the drivers side back at the bellcrank. That should give you some clearance for your throttle cable bracket. Too late for today but they make a extension adapter. You're pretty handy. You could fashion one.
I have a complete set, un molested sitting here right now. NOW I think it is late 66.
The different engine isn't usually the issue but almost everyone that changes intakes has this mis-adjustment issue. Replacing a stock AFB with a late model Edelbrock is usually ok but may require the Mopar adapter. (so it's not necessarily a carb issue but a intake thing)
The top link moves in a fairly straight line. I don't think the length effects the ratios as long as the top bellcrank starts in the correct spot.
Here's ome different throttle pressure levers (the ones on the transmission)
The shorter ones are for the 904 or visa versa.
Some of the linkage is the same for all the v-8s.
This is a 318/904 set being sold on e-bay that I put the part numbers onto for reference.
No idea where this photo came from. Think it was a vender display at carlilse or nats that was on the interweb
Noticed this difference
from these

I see.
I've seen that setup on but not messed with them.
Guess that better clears the early firewall.
And I assume that would be for a 904. yes?
Yes it is. I grabbed that out of a wrecking yard. Car was sad. 2 BBL setup. Different then 4BBL. As far as I know, the main difference is where the "arm" is attached at the pivot, and how straight it is.....
So if you straighten this, like I did, it MIGHT make it to long. Throw off the geometry. Still unknown at this point.
If it is, I will measure un molested distance, and re drill hole to the correct position. I do not think it will be an issue tho...

i ran 5-20 in my slant just to clean it out and when I told my buddy, he said "holly ****" and that was all he said. I now have 15-40.
I have one. Somewhere.
