Just installed new Edelbrock Performer carb and intake on my 400. This is the first time I've started from scratch, I can't find anything to reference to see what it needs to look like.

Here's what I have:
Edelbrock 1406
Throttle Lever Adapter Ford 351M and 400 Edelbrock 1483 Edelbrock Carburetor Linkage Adapters, Studs & Cable Extensions
Throttle Cable Plate Ford 351M and 400 Edelbrock 1493 Edelbrock Carburetor Linkage Adapters, Studs & Cable Extensions

Does anyone have a picture with all of this hooked up. I attached the lever adapter per instructions, but the sping to the kickdown looks funny. I also don't know what to do with the cable plate. All of the instructions say I need it, but I'm not sure how it fits on there and there is no instruction.

Please advise! Thanks a bunch!

 

Can anyone explain how this goes together?

 

not sure if this helps or not , but this is how mine is hooked up.....

 

the bottom part of the spring goes to the manifold and the top of the spring goes in the big whole on the throtle linkage, ive got 1 on my 400, what type of manifold u runnung?

 

Thanks for the help, I figured it out. I made it harder than it was. The throttle cable plate just extends the kickdown rod.

Running Performer 400 intake, mitch. I have a mild cam, headers and with this upgrade, it rolls! I'm pretty sure it will take my Hemi in the 1/4. Or it would until it died on the test drive...Looks like my neutral saftey switch decided to give out, it died with a little smoke coming from under the dash. Towed it home to work on it another day. Starting a thread on it...

 

wat kind of headers are u running, do they go above the transmission crossmember? got any pics of motor? thanks

 

Not sure what make they are, Mitch. They were on it when I bought it. They are above the cross member, here's an old pic before it was cleaned up...


Here's a before and after of the engine, blurry phone pic from today...



the latest...



Still have some finish work to do on the ingnition wiring, now I'm waiting for Jegs to replace the carb, it was puking fuel from the linkage on the passenger side. Never ending...

 

man that looks good, i had a 79 bronco on 35s that had headers, went over the crossmember like that, and if u ever wanna get a new carb, go to jegs my buddys got 1 on his 69 ford, we all think its better than holly or edelbrock

 

Really...??? Never thought of going house brand, I'll check it out, thanks!

 

What carb are you talkin about? All I see is a QuadraJet that was remanufactured by Jegs.

 

im sorry, i ment to put summit racing carbs, go there and check it out
