440 swap kickdown question

[Stewsta]

Swapped a 440 in place of 318 poly and need to know what I need to make the kickdown work. The current bracket came on the 440 and doesn't work with my setup. Is there a bracket that will work with my linkage?

I would go with the bouchillon kickdown linkage kit. Comes with everything you need and its easy to install.

That throttle bracket may be from a 2bbl and 4bbl is different. It is for a one piece kickdown set used on some 71 full size and all 72 up except A-Body or truck. Your poly kick down won't work on a 440 and some of pieces from a 383 are also different than a 440. I do have an original 440 one piece rod but it is from a 73 or 74 and i don't know if it would fit the firewall on your earlier model at least i assume it is having a poly.

Thanks to both of you. Before I started this swap it seemed that the forums said it would just take a little work to make the linkage work. I was hoping a bracket similar to this and either lengthening or shortening the rods would get me close.
