Top one is the kickdown that comes from the tranny to carb, bottom one mounts on the manifold, hold the kickdown rod and throttle cable.  That arm goes to the throttle stud on the carb.  No idea what from though.

Thanks for responding all...

I am planning on using a Mancini 727 Kickdown cable but think I am missing some brackets on the tranny, I think.

I should have a throttle cable connected to the carb linkage.. then the mancini kickdown connects to that and back down to the tranny, right? Hopefully the missing brackets are still attached to my old tranny.

You might want to look at the Lokar products too.

I would get this one before I bought a Lokar. A little more expensive but ALOT more adjustable.

The cheaper Mancini one is a Lokar,the more expensive one ($119) is Bouchillion. :grinyes:

Too slow joe!!..   :bigshades: I just ordered the whole she-bang from Manicini... throttle cable, throttle to carb bracket and carb adapter for Edelbrock..
BPE couldn't guarantee that the Mancini  727 kickdown I already had would work with their throttle bracket so I would have to order that whole that too.. didnt want to do that.

Anyway, the throttle bracket looks pretty good to me!  :popcorn:
