Hey Group, Got another question. I would like to get rid of the ugly throttle linkage that is on my 289. Any thoughts? I have seen a few different threads on other sites but they don't have a kick-down rod. Car: 1963 Ford Galaxie Country Sedan Wagon (Stock: 289)
If you use a more modern 4-barrel, a cable and modern pedal for the gas, and a Lokar cable for the kickdown, I think that would work. You would have to come up with a bracket to hold the cables at the carb end.
So you only need a bracket big enough for the two cables, then hooking them up, and any other fabbing.
