This pic is of an FE with an automatic with the funky stock trapeze linkage:
This is my 70 FE with an NP435 and a simplified linkage system using early Mustang parts:

Yessiree... the early Mustang linkage is readily available from a zillion parts houses... 78-79 Dentsides will work too... they use a ball and socket linkage at the carb (easy to disconnect) and the typical clip at the pedal arm. Remeber to grab the return springs and brackets.

got the linkage figured out but it wont work as this motor went into my 64 f100 and it dont have the firewall brace to make the linkage work properly so i went to the hardware store bought a $3.00 rod and bent it to work easy and cheap heres some pics i had to drill the hole on the side of the carbs arm for the linkage to go through now i just need to make a bracket to mount the throttle return spring to
