Re: 1406 Edel. With 700R?

Are you referring to the bracket that mounts onto the throttle linkage for a kickdown on an auto tranny or are you talking about the actual mounting bracket? The important thing is to get a bracket that will hold the tranny cable base at the right distance from the throttle connection, so that the TV cable is not engaged at all times. From that point it is all basics. As I stated before, there are brackets available all over for this situation,

Re: 1406 Edel. With 700R?

EDELBROCK lists #8030 as semi-universal adjustable throttle/cruise/kickdown bracket for 700R4. As far as headers, you might look into shorty style to fit 68 Camaro or for 92 and up trucks. Just guessing. Both are popular for a lot of weird engine swaps.

This mounts http://store.summitracing.com/partde...view=skumounts on the carburetor (corrects the travel) itself plus you need the manifold bracket for accelerator/tv cable.

Re: 1406 Edel. With 700R?

I was curious about this too and emailed Edelbrock. They replied that you need a bracket (part # HP8620 from summit) to make the 700R work with the 1406. They want $40 for the dang thing. Must be made out of gold
