Hey Nat
For the holley carb you need a geometry corrector made by holley or alternatively you can make one http://purplesagetradingpost.com/sum...o/700R4p1.html
The cable is not a kickdown per se. It actually alters the oil pressure in the auto which affects how hard/soft the auto changes and incorrect adjustment or geometry can result in burnt out clutches and a fried auto.
Theres heaps on the internet about this so do some searching. Theres also threads here on third gen about how to adjust the cable once geometry is correct.
