Need Help With Lokar Kickdown

I finally ordered the Lokar kickdown and went to install it tonight. I got it bolted to the carb with only a few problems, but then ran head first into a brick wall when I went to connect it to the transmission. The arm on the tranny needs to be pushed down to downshift, I don't see how a cable being pulled from the carb can do this? Do I need a different arm? I also couldn't find a place to mount the bracket onto the trans. I need help if anyone knows. Thanks.

Sounds like a plan worth trying to me. Wish I had thought of that, I'll try it after work this morning. Thanks!
