In my 54 3100 I have a 350 SBC and a 700R4. Am
installing a new Edelbrock 600 carb. On this combination
will I need an adapter for the TV cable hookup to get the right angle. I have read that for this carb & trans you have to buy an adapter
to make this work correctly. Anybody out there
have any experience with this? Thanks in advance. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 4,983 Master Gabster | | Master Gabster Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 4,983 | Sorry jerry, I have a Holly with my 700R4. I'm sure someone here can answer that.

We have the chassis more or less complete.
The rebuilt 350 hasn't been fired up yet but am trying to plan ahead on this. I did not realize that an Edelbrock carb might not have the proper hookup for a TV cable for a trans as popular as
a 700R4. Is there anyone out there that has any
experience with this problem. | | | | | Joined: Jul 2007 Posts: 17 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Jul 2007 Posts: 17 | Just checked out your pictures on the webshots.
Nice job.Its going to be a great truck. As soon as I can figure out how I will post some pictures of mine. Mine is a little more lowbuck than yours but I hope it will turn out as nice. | | | | | Joined: Jun 2004 Posts: 8,597 Riding in the Passing Lane | | Riding in the Passing Lane Joined: Jun 2004 Posts: 8,597 | There is a kit to hook it up, but you can improvise if you get the right distance from the center of the throttle shaft & correct arc.

cable hookup, could I copy the hookup from the old throttle body as far as angle and distance
from the throttle shaft. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2005 Posts: 1,026 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2005 Posts: 1,026 | I'm running the Edelbrock on my 327/700r4 combo. I found the correct brackets on Ebay. Log on & do a search for "700r4 brackets". You should have a variety to choose from.
