Hey all,

I've got an LD4B intake and a Performer 600 cfm planned for the '71 Dart GT (318, console shifted A904, 3.23:1 sure-grip 8 3/4", MP orange ecu, FlowMaster 40s with 2 1/4" pipes on factory maifolds).

I need some guidance as far as the carb gasket/spacer. I've found 3 choices:
1. Edelbrock EDL-9265 which is .325" thick open
2. Edelbrock EDL-9266 which is .325" thick divided plenum
3. Edelbrock EDL-9267 which is .125" thick 4-hole
Which would you suggest and why?

Which intake manifold gaskets should I use?

Will I need any of the following?
1. Edelbrock EDL-8007 Throttle Lever Stud
2. Edelbrock EDL-8021 Throttle Cable Bracket

I know the "kickdown" linkage needs to hooked up before the vehicle is driven. I know Lokar and Bouchillon make a cable to perform this function, but has anyone ever modified an existing 2-bbl linkage to work? If so how (photos/details)?

I've not spun a wrench (if I can find them) in nearly 20 years, so this is a major operation for me. Any guidance is extremely appreciated.
