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?

hey thanx for the pics guys, on my car there seems to be a rod that goes to the tranny just under the fire wall(drivers side) it was attached before but after i attached the new carb do i need that-wat ever it is--anymore?
i think its just a kickdown linkage but i dont seem to need it, but im not really sure

ESP47 posts have it some how rigged up? but wat is it?

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.

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

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.
