727 trans kickdown linkage/w tti headers

[oldsnofear]

Hey, I just put my carb on and im tring to set the kickdown linkage up. I had to modify the stock linkage. I was wondering if the trans lever should be at the front stop at idle and at the rear stop at wide open throttle. thats how i set it up just dont want to burn up a trans thanks

Thats the way it goes.

If all of the parts (including the carb) are stock, the adjustment is done at idle. If the carb is aftermarket the correct Mopar throttle lever extension must be used.

With the carb at idle and the trans lever full forward, adjust the top rod so that the rear of the slot rests against the throttle stud. Be sure there is a spring to pull the linkage forward.

From the initial setting, the linkage can be adjusted to tune the part throttle upshift points to suit the individual.

That was straight from John Kunkel's keyboard
