    440 RPM / Stock carb. kickdown slackrod modification.

    Just enough room for WOT, and some slack for a choke setup. This also fits under the stock flat hood. (1974 B.)

    Nice! But sure was nice to dump all that stuff, and go to a manual valve body. Which also
    gives harder crisper shifts, which prolongs tranny life.

    I did remove the kick down linkage from my LA 1968 Cuda.
    I'll dig out the picture. It still has both E & A, throttle brackets piggy backed.
    This 440- 1974 cuda is for strip-now /street-later, so its only got a shift improver kit / 4.30 ratio (for now) and it needs a kick down.
