Shep69 149 Report post Posted April 9, 2015 I'm running a edelbrock carb on a performer rpm manifold on my 351w and was wondering if anyone has managed to get the kick down lever on a FMX to work. I made up a bracket off the throttle linkage and attached it to the kick down rod but only had limited success. It works but only if I floor the accelerator pedal. I did adjust it to kick in on partial acceleration then I can't get WOT as the kick down lever bottoms out on the gearbox. I know I can manually shift the auto but it would be nice to get it working.

dkm004 11 Report post Posted April 9, 2015 Hey. There maybe a linkage you can purchase from Edelbrock to integrate the kick down rod. I know this is a Holley but it may help give you a visual on what you need. Hope it helps! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zv5Pw8QMOfs Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RPM 1,279 Report post Posted April 9, 2015 It works but only if I floor the accelerator pedal. Isn't that how they're supposed to work? Edelbrock should have specific hardware for the Ford kickdown. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
