on all the Fords I put Intakes and carbs on there has been little issues with the kick down.So issues has been the throttle linkage that bolts to intake.On my trck now I have a 1977 linkage it just goes to the carb to the gas pedel.On my Mustang there was a kit to make the factory linkage work,I think it was offered thru Eldelbrock

for that part that is leaking coolant looks like you could take it out and put some thread sealant on the threads and would stop the leak.. i had the same intake and carb setup on mine i didnt have to change the linkage from the pedal to the carb but not sure on the kick down.. if its not a high rise intake it should just match up

kick down
I have a 70 F100 with a 302 3 speed auto. I replacedthe stock intake manifold with a low rise intake that has 525 CFM eledbrock on top. I took the stock kick down off. You really don't need it. When I step on it, it shifts down automatically.
As for the leak on the intake. You will need to replace the heater hose connections to the new intake and get some plugs for the extra holes that yuou will not use. so for now, just clamp off your hoses and take out the intake connection, put some white tape on it and put in back in.
