Hi all.
I was wondering if any one was running this kickdown linkage on a edelbrock performer RPM intake? If so, any hints to setting up properly?
Thanks,

No problem, just currently I have a stock cast iron intake and I'm switching to the RPM Edelbrock manifold which is considerably higher then a stock one and I wonder if any of the other linkage needs to be raised to make it work?

I've used their kit on a 440 with an rpm intake, had no problem with it. It's been a few years, but just used what was in the kit. Shouldn't be a problem switching intakes and using what you have.

I've used an rpm intake w/ stock linkages before, no problems. The bouchillon was on here when I purchased it. Works great, easily adjustable...but the stock stuff works fine too.
It's best when converting to a auto and don't want the hassle to track down all the other loose odd and ends...
