holley carb help

oh.....

had no problem with my 2 barrel linkage till i added them stinkin truck headers

i can find 1 but its off of a 390 car

 

I went with the Lokar cables.

 

ok guys so what should i do that is the most feasible
do i need one of these weather i use rod or cable http://www.holley.com/20-91.asp or http://www.summitracing.com/parts/HLY-20-60/
????

also other than that part what do i need.... just the cable or rod???

and what would work better the cable or rod because i don't want to spend a bunch of money but i want it done right

 

I am just trying to get everything figured out so i know what to buy

 

I don't know of a rod that fits our cars and a 4 barrel. My cable came with that spring bracket and they do have some that are not braided. It wasn't much for the basic style.. The cable type is a little bit of work too.

 

IF you do go cable I suggest not cutting the cable untill you have driven the car or are absolutly sure you have the setting correct.

 

could you give me a link of one not braided

 

This is where I got mine. I remember now that I looked at it that I got the braided cause it was the same price. I am pretty sure the bracket came with it but it's been a few years. If you call them they can answer questions, they answered mine so I went and checked them out. I ended up buying quite a few items there. Lucky for me I can drive there.

Wouldn't a kick down rod from a early '70s mut-stankg work.Just a thought.

 

Not much feedback thus far about the rod. My experience about the rod is that nothing fits for our cars and our cars did not come with a 4 barrell. If someone made something work I wish they would speak up..

 

ok so all i would need to buy is the kick down cable and maybe a bracket for it on the carb and i would have a good working kick down that would blot to my 4 barrel holley good

 

No. You still need to install it properly and the transmission has to work . There is an adjustment procedure and modifications I hope you can handle. The mods under the car were tight and took some patience. My big belly didn't help. Even a rod requires the correct adjustment and mobility. If all goes well it will work. They wouldn't be selling this stuff if it didn't.

 

is the kick down from lokar about the same as the one you bought

 

I guess I don't understand the question. Mine is a Lokar, both are.

 

lol i didn't read it right ok one more ? and i am done if i get the lokar kickdown can i still use the original throttle cable with my carb
