Mind this is going in a 1968 Charger, 440/ 727....I think those are A-Body linkage but it looks like I am staring at the passenger side #2 cylinder with the throttle linkage over it....

For some reason the runners look longer to the right side of the picture...

I just like having the answer at my disposal when he approaches me to fix it for him. I'll make sure to charge him extra special for it.

Well its a 727....but on my setup 440/727 again, I have the carb adapter hooked up to the throttle cable correctly. I didnt take the picture. I am just puzzled by wanna be mechanics....This is the same mechanic who installed his alternator on right in front of his fuel pump...an inch away from his subframe to "clean up the engine bay"....
Now the guy who is assembling this car is saying he took it from a 73 Charger with a 318...I still don't think he has a kickdown linkage. Its going to be funny when he finds his transmission all over the street here.

And John,if you look again it is connected as throttle linkage and would work as such but not well.

Please look again , the factory throttle cable is installed on the linkage in board of the trans linkage. But you are correct if that mess was being used a throttle linkage it would not work well at all .
