I could never shoot this guy.

RIP Dutch



Dutch looked like a cute guy. Having a throttle bracket from a cruise control vehicle can help with the hi-rise intake.




yea,he was one of the best.

the cruz control extention clamp is exactly what I used to raise mine with.

Yes, they just add their own prefix to the BPE part number.

I am using the Mancini tall bracket which puts the throttle cable on a more even plane with the carb lever.

Exactly as I am using a spacer too and it is good to go. Glad it worked out for you. I did; however install a longer linkage adjustment piece that allowed me to dial in the up and kickdown shift points.

yep,looks like I will be going with that bracket to ditch the hoky cruz control clamp I am using. close but cant get 100% full throttle with it.

where did you get the extention and would you post a pic of it on your carb/intake?

I used the previous Edelbrock adjuster years ago when I swapped to a taller manifold. They just screw on to end of your adjustment rod then the adjuster screws on to it.


BTW, Summit Racing has both sizes in stock 1/4" and the 5/16" for $7.95

That looks like an allthread union nut and a short stud in one end...about 75 cents at your local bolt store. I know fastenall carries the union nuts.....
