where to find passing gear/kickdown switch supplier
When the orig.327 was yanked from the engine bay of my 67 3/4 ton, the kickdown switch went with it.
I had a Transmission shop check it today, & they said i needed a ' kickdown' switch. I was led to believe it as an electric switch. I have all the wires from the transmission. I believe it was mounted on the intake manifold, behind the carb.. My engine bay now sports a GM crate 350, with the original transmission. I'm looking for suppliers of this switch or ? I've checked LMC ( pgs 117 detent cable ) and YearOne ( pg 135 kickdown bracket ) BTW,... thanks, jim

The switches and brackets are available new and there are aftermarket versions. Attached is a picture of the original switch as installed. Also attached is a picture of the available parts with the vendor information.
