Re: TH 350 kickdown cable

pretty sure it's a one size fits all application
engine transmission isnt any different dimension from truck to car to motorhome

Re: TH 350 kickdown cable

I'm not 100% positive, but I think they are all the same length. I mean think about it, from the center of the arm of the carb to where the kickdown goes in the tranny is the same on all small blocks with a th350. I think the only difference is the bracket to hold it to the top of the intake.

On my Edlebrock 1406 (4bbl) I'm using the cable that came from the factory on a 2bbl Monte Carlo. I purchased an aftermarket bracket and just hooked it all up.

To adjust it hook it up to the carb, lift the little black tab up behind the bracket, while holding the tab move the throttle to wide open throttle, then while holding WOT push the tab down. You're done.
Of course this procedure is done with engine off.

Re: TH 350 kickdown cable

Thanks for the info I also thought the same but I have seen them on the internet ranging from 38 inches to 60 inch would just like to have one that is close so I don't have to have the long ones messing up the looks under the hood.

Re: TH 350 kickdown cable

are you not able to measure the distance between where the cable mounts on the tranny and where the carb is located??

Re: TH 350 kickdown cable

they are all the same,, for that engine/th350 compo.
a pontiac 350/th350 might be a little different than a chevy 350/th350 combo.

Re: TH 350 kickdown cable

you don't really need a cable, just plug the tranny hole
