Edelbrock carb linkage pics wanted

[nrt69]

does anyone have a pic of a small block with an Edelbrock intake and carb?

id like to see how your throttle and kickdown linkage is hooked up.

Do you have the correct Mopar throttle lever extension (Edelbrock #1481) for that Edelbrock? If so, it hooks up like the original carb did.

Yep......that what I did on another car and it hooks up like factory.

Did you change your intake manifold?  If you did and went to high rise, kickdown will need some modifying.

[nrt69]

went from a stock 2bbl/intake to an eddy performer intake/4bblcarb

[nrt69]

what modification on the kickdown? any pics?

so the stock throttle cable connects to part#1481 and that connects to the existing carb linkage? any pics?

not sure if this is any help to you ,  this is mine , but its a bigblock

Since your stock 2bbl carb was a skinny little guy, your linkage probably won't line up with the wider 4bbl carb.  I'm not saying this is the best way but this is what I did.

Pic 1 is just the stock setup.
Pic 2 shows the adjustments I had to make.  You will probably not have to extend the "U" bracket since you still have a low profile manifold, but to hit the throttle on the carb it will most likely have to be twisted.  I found that the kickdown has to come out (cause carb is wider) and forward (cause throttle on 4bbl carb is farther toward the front).  That's why I added ~2 inches to the kickdown arm.
Pic 3 is just to show how it lines up now.  Also, I had to cut out the support bracket that attaches to the manifold because of the larger runners.  Not sure about the RPM manifold runner size.

I've never seen anyone else do it like this but then again, no one ever shares how to make stuff work on small blocks.  Hope this helps with some ideas.

these help very much, thanks.

im not sure ill need to modify anyting though after looking at tan top's set up and holding mine in place on my car.

we'll see.....

I have a 340 in my Dart with an Edelbrock RPM intake and 600 carb. Maybe these pics will help
