Do you need more picks than what is posted on the front page???? Mopar Slant Six, "Super Six" Two Barrel System By Reed Speir ("Reed") Edit & webpage layout by Doug Dutra (Doctor Dodge) Those aren't that bad. What specifically are you having problems with? Do you have the FSM for a 1976 or 77 Super Six? |

i agree that the super six article is extermely usefull. i printed it out and have read it prolly 100 times. here is what my super six looks like  custom throttle cable bracket made my ceej and fopar. i use a lokar cable insted of a kick down. the throttle return spring bracket is off a v-8 kick down that i modifed to work. slantsixdan has posted an awesome electric choke kit for the 2bbl in the slanted network part of this forum. |

If I understand you correctly, that is the kickdown linkage for the automatic tranny. If you have an automatic then you need it; if you have a manual then you don't |

Hello and welcome. First, read this article. It will answer most of your questions about converting from a one barrel to a two barrel. Here is how the linkages attach to the carb:  You must also adjust the kickdown linkage once it is installed:  Good luck and feel free to ask any more wuestions! |

If i'm reading you correctly, you have the old 1 BBL kickdown linkage. You're gonna need a 2 BBL kickdown with all the brackets to make your super six shift right. Your old linkage won't work and I wouldn't recommend driving it much without a new linkage. |

yea i have the old 1 barrel kickdown, how much would it be to get all the brackets etc for the two barrel and the kickdown? |

The 2bbl kickdown linkage setups are getting tough to find and costly. See this thread for kickdown options. |

http://tinyurl.com/5jmxdb Thats the only one I could find on ebay. It's very pricey. I think people are fooled because he did a good job cleaning it up. They don't usually go for that high but if you need one now then your options are slimmer. |
