| Post subject: | super six kickdown problem |
Yesterday I installed the super six intake onto my 73 duster, Im still working out some kinks on the Carb.. the biggest problem I have now is the kickdown.. I first tried the stock 1 bbl one.. that didn't work so I put the super 6 one on and it acts exactly the same.. I adjusted and still nothing.. the trans lever is still the stock one. is that the problem? Is there a way to use the stock one? What have you guys done? Thanks |

Stock throttle position rod from one barrel is different than two barrel’s rigging. Most likely you will need to convert to a kick-down cable with some sort of adapter on carburetor to give correct architecture so that throttle and transmission work properly together such as this OEM Mopar based set-up. There are other brand cables and adapters one can use as well, and most of the above example can be scrounged from a junk yard. You may or may not need to change throttle position lever on transmission to one of a different length depending on how carburetor is adapted to accept its new linkage or cable configuration. What brand carburetor are you using? |

Don't see why you should need to convert to a nonstock kickdown linkage. That'll work if you want to engineer it, but the complete factory 2bbl setup will drop right on and work correctly. It must be complete: all rods, pivots, springs, brackets, the shorter 2bbl throttle cable, and the correct kickdown lever on the transmission. |

What do you mean by the kickdown "doesn't work"? The linkage doesn't physically fit? It doesn't hook up to the carb? The transmission no longer kicks down? ???? |

OK well right now I'm running the 2bbl super six intake, headers ,super 6 Carb along with super six linkage, stock throttle cable and stock trans lever.. when I take off my car shifts through all 3 gears within 3 seconds on a regular take off.. when I floor it from 40 mph it doesn't kickdown.. everything is bolted up fine.. just doesn't shift right.. |

Today I went to the junkyard and got the correct lever for the tranny I'm about to put it on right now |
