Vortec 350 Throttle Bracket Help
Hello, I'm running an Edelbrock 7116 performer rpm intake manifold and it doesn't seem like the stock throttle and transmission kickdown will bolt onto it - after some digging on the site it seems the Edelbrock bracket 8032 bracket is junk and incompatible? Any advice on the best bolt on strategy would be much appreciated.

Re: Vortec 350 Throttle Bracket Help
i went through this with my crate motor, since the vortec bolt pattern is different the stock bracket will not work as you found out.Since i am using a Holly carb I am using this one from Holley https://www.summitracing.com/parts/hly-20-95/overview/
However i do not have the kick down cable hooked up it dose not adjust to the correct length and manually down shift. I did buy this one https://www.summitracing.com/parts/tfs-20000/overview/ from trick flow but have not used it yet . I have tried the cheap universal ones and modified the Edelbrock ones and all were pretty much crap Good luck ,

Re: Vortec 350 Throttle Bracket Help
I'm running the same carb, though with the 2116 Edlebrock intake.
I got the "Spectre Performance 24283 Throttle Cable Bracket" off amazon and it's done the job. Feels a little flimsy, but I have had no issues with it.

Check out TCI I bought a bracket for my quadrajet when switching to a 200r4 trans.
