Identify these C6 controls (pix)

I do not have access to my Ford repair manuals righ now, but need to identify each of 3 levers on the side of my SB C6. The actual shifter linkage is a B&M unit with it's proprietary lever/linkage.

What does each lever do, including the one whose endpiece is off the edge of the pic? Is the little lever with the ball end supposed to move independently of the actual shifter lever?

TIA
GS

From the case out: the first one is the factory shift lever. The 2nd one is a after market B&M shifter adapter. The 3rd one is the manual kick down.

How far is the manual kickdown lever supposed to move when actuated?

Until it stops in the trans, it's adjusted at the carb. Theres an over ride spring on the carb so it cant bind at full throttle if you want to adjust it to come in before full throttle. Push the rod down, pull the throttle wide open and adjust the screw. I keep mine at full throttle, but you can adjust it the way you want it.

Got it Mark, thanks.

But I was wondering how far (in actual distance) does the lever actually move before the kickdown is effected? 1/2", 1", more? Less?
