Last post by KurtfromLaQuinta - April 27, 2026, 01:48:49 PMA quick search on Ebay I found these items... https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=727+mopar+kickdown+linkage&norover=1&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-153677-346401-4&mkcid=2&mkscid=102&keyword=&crlp=675198184529_&MT_ID=&geo_id=&rlsatarget=dsa-2410057144200&adpos=&device=c&mktype=&loc=9031389&poi=&abcId=9314583&cmpgn=20292564165&sitelnk=&adgroupid=149903427345&network=g&matchtype=&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=20292564165&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI8ZSB89WOlAMVTyZECB0jAw-2EAAYASAAEgIRyPD_BwE
Those things are going for semi big bucks. That one guy wants $2000 for just the kickdown linkage rod! Nuts!!!
Anything for a Big Block should fit... 383-440. The only difference between that and a small block would be the length of the rod going down to the bell crank that mounts on the side of the transmission. Six Packs/ Barrels center carbs are pretty much in the same location as a 4 Barrel carburetor. So there isn't anything special between the two.
This looks like your best bet. It's fairly cheap, but really dirty. Easy fix there.... https://www.ebay.com/itm/267608724305?_skw=727+mopar+kickdown+linkage&itmmeta=01KQ84C87B6NKMTM9X7RYBN0EP&hash=item3e4eb91351:g:qT4AAeSwC1Vpt3KH&itmprp=enc%3AAQALAAABAGfYFPkwiKCW4ZNSs2u11xCxThDv0ICuQkeb3fTMagaBjTKwqbXj6TZwWGoQtMwGQu0uPLEXqs0Mm6xfVMrgl3ib%2F4ptJUJ72%2BAbwFiuC3I0xVF2LlqqHTcLzHw0uMwq7XNl1PiB7kSfkZ3kNHG%2BZYRzVXbNyPoR4bgScQthR3KPYbAaPPUJ9gUG7GcLjRZSHuuTttPJLYXM%2BJr5psm1%2BUszJp%2FPkYxiybWrvCdxqmM9gAz60I29b5FYsVu7pYhej5lahGkdmqm675j6K1z3yXABJrNQ%2FXg3HnIx1ll1bhItj9W2ZzQbMDpWLbSlruBlM7L%2FLHRtJ9Qcif0PA7nRzBg%3D%7Ctkp%3ABk9SR-6DsYS6Zw
I have a kick down set up I've modified through the many years I've owned my truck. From the 360 4 barrel to the Six Pack I'm running now. I took it off when I went with a cable setup. Then got rid of that when I went with a manual valve body.
It's just sitting in my spare parts shelves. It isn't "numbers matching"... so I'm sure your not interested.
If you are let me know.
Good luck with your search.

Last post by metallicareload99 - April 27, 2026, 01:48:27 PMDo any of you have problems with the belt squealing? I have a single belt 136 amp alternator from a Dodge van, and it sometimes squeals. I have my idle set at around 1,000 RPM

Last post by LaOtto70Charger - April 27, 2026, 12:13:30 PMWell the cars amp gauge was going negative when running at idle. I think in the 750 to 800 rpm range. Been a few years now. I do run idle lower so it doesn't jerk bad going into gear. I have a 2 pulley ac car. I can't remember if I was using the multimeter to check amps or not. I dont have any major accessories but just sitting at a light with the brakes on with no heat it couldn't keep up. The power bastards one they actually stated an amperage at 800 rpm. So just a little extra throttle at in gear it kept everything positive amps.

Last post by b5blue - April 27, 2026, 09:12:14 AM Mine is listed for 120amp at idle, single pulley 2 wire regulator 150 max I think. The pulley is much smaller then my Denso's.
I'm doing this cuz I added a booster fan when I installed A/C which I run all the time in FL. , at idle under full load the Denso is good for just a bit under 60amp with max at 120amps.
Are you talking VOLTS or AMPS? I got there 2 wire regulator (18.00) and it's adjustable.

Last post by LaOtto70Charger - April 27, 2026, 08:28:30 AMWhich Mega amp alternator did you get? I tired the 140 one. I wasn't getting much voltage difference at my idle settings. So sent it back. Currently got a 140 amp from power bastards. It was a nice improvement. When at idle in park or neutral all good. Go to drive and the idle drop would cause discharge. Big issue is it makes a heck of a lot of noise. Think the bearing is going so back to the old one until I decide who to try next or again.

Aero Cars / WTB - 440, 6Bbl Kickdown linka...
Last post by cudavic - April 27, 2026, 07:16:22 AMI realize that this is a long shot, I am looking for a kickdown linkage assembly for my 440, 6 Bbl Superbird.
If anyone has one or knows of a source please let me know.
I may be able to get away with just the verticle down rod that runs parallel to the firewall.
Thanks in advance. Vic
