Trash all of it and go with the Lokar cable system. Its too easy and gets rid of all of that stuff.

besides needing the edelebrock adapter what linkage do i need for this
Tough crowd. Good thing you're not asking about your dog...they would be telling you to take it out back and shoot it in the head.
Looks like all you need is the stud that bolts onto the carb linkage. I have the same setup on my truck and it runs fine.

I would take the factory linkage over the crappy Lokar any day!
I have a Lokar cable in my swap meet bucket I took off my Ramcharger. Not able to locate a factory linkage I went with the BPE throttle plate and factory type cable for the 518 trans swap.

here it is on a tall rpm intake. I did riase the throttle cable clamp so the cable was level with the stud since this pic.(and they said stock linkage wont work on the RPM intake...) stock 78-440 truck 3-piece linkage just swaped a 3-piece set up over to the 85 318/727 replacing the 1 piece set up. it is off a mid 80s SB 4-v dippy. much more adjustability with the 3 piece. if you need the tall intake bracket for the B-engine,AREngineering has them.

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

not to hijack this thread but....what type of replacement cable does that factory setup use? I have one for a Dodge van and the thing is about 6 feet long. I need to get this figured out so I can install my a518.
91 Dodge van is what I used when I built my 1st one from scratch The Bouchillion kit uses the same cable it looks like I compared them when I got my 1st Bouchillion
