Re: where to find kickdown bracket

Don't limit your search to f-bodies.
Both 200-4R and 700-R4
Caprice through '88
Camaro through '87
Monte Carlo through '88
Trucks.
Most anything with a SBC and OD trans. will have what you need. Cutlasses came w/ SBC sometimes.
With a SBO, their bracket bolts down differently but would probably work for you.

Re: where to find kickdown bracket

I am assuming you are talking about the tv linkage. I found a link that showed the geometry of the linkage, and fabricated my own. They are also available from Summit. What tranny did the carb mate up to? If it is a 700 you should be all set.

I looked on summit. Didn't find for quadrajet. But I think I can make an edlebrock one work.
