Installed the Lokar kickdown switch setup for my TH400. Didn't get to test it out until today. Man, my truck seems to haul a$$ now that I have a passing gear. Also helps when I'm driving up the hill coming up to our house. Big thumbs up, definitely worth the $$$. Thanks goes out to board member Cobalt for the write up on the install...

Does it matter what kind of carb you have with that kickdown switch?

Cobalt did his with an Edelbrock. I have a Quadrajet and had to grind the mounting flange of the carb a little to get the Lokar throttle cable/return spring bracket to mount correctly...

No problems with mine, easy to setup. Mines on a holley.
