i need some pics i cant get any brackets for the gas ang passing gear cabels that will work with my carb....... the problem is i have tha air gap rpm intake plus a 2'' adapter then a 750 holly dominator carb and the ones ive seen and tried are too low i have no idea wich brackets are the ones to use help anyone ...thanks by the way i have it on a 454 bbc

It´s not the intake´s fault, I now have an Airgap with a SpeedDemon on a two inch spacer and use this style of bracket.
Go HERE and search out the bracket for you, remember you´ll need the detent cable fixture as well.
Plus longer carb bolts or better studs.

Just to clear things up, its not a "passing gear" cable, it is a throttle valve cable, and it operates through the entire throttle range. And if the cable is not installed and adjusted correctly then improper function and/or damage to the transmission will be the result.

There is also a spell check two clicks over from the submit reply button. It is easier to read a post and understand what is being said if things are spelled correctly. JMO

sorry bro for not knowing the correct name for the cable malc shure did know what i was talking about maybe you should learn how to read and understand a bit betterand if your not gana help on this problem i have then just keep your opinions to yourself noyhing personal jmo by the way thanks malc that was EXACTLY ehat i was talking about... nuff said...

I knew what cable you were talking about also, I have talked to people before that say they don't care if the cable is adjusted properly because they just putt along and hardly ever pass someone. And when you called it a passing gear cable I just wanted to make sure you understood the function of the cable. Is it that hard to use the spell check? It is there for a reason, I was just trying to give you some pointer for getting good responses.

alright crussell85 thanks for your help

does anyone have a similiar setup or anymore ideas

[kc8oye]

unless he has a 700r4, or a 200-4r, that's not a TV cable.

what's odd if he isn't running overdrive that he has the cable. most people run a TH400 behind a big block (no kick down cable)

a Th350 will happily live w/o it's kickdown cable connected.

why don't you use the correct brackets from holley?

This is the setup i use on my holley. This is my old 600 single feed carb (only closeup I have) but I use the same setup on my standard 4150 dual feed carb too. it's a holley brand bracket, that holds both my throttle and TV Cables (I Do have a 700r4 overdrive) since it bolts down underneath the nut that holds the carb on, my spacer doesn't affect it.

edit: holycrap that's a big file.. I better just link to it

when i had my TH350 trans, I used a factory bracket, but used two 1" tall brass spacers and longer bolts to compensate for the 1" spacer i had to use.
the bracket bolted down to the back two intake bolts on the driver's side of my small block.

just incase you are interested, this is a shot of the setup with my new 650 dual feed, and not using that goofy BowTie Overdrives TV correction kit for holleys, but using Holley's own bracket instead. it's not that much of a close up, but if you look close you can see whats going on

The other possibility is this from Trans-Dapt but you need extra gaskets and is´nt removeable without lifting the carb.

i have a th350 why would i not need the kickdown cable ..just wondering..

[kc8oye]

well, it's not that you "Don't need" it.. it's that you dont' "HAVE" to connect it like you would a transmission that has a T.V cable (like a 700r4 or a 200-4r)

that cable tells the TH350 to delay full throttle upshifts, and tells it down shift when you shove your foot into the throttle.. w/o the trans just won't downshift on it's own and might upshift a tad early if you don't use an adjustable modulator.

I was just pointing out that the poster made an incorrect assumption about that cable. not all transmissions _HAVE_ to have that cable. not hooking a TV cable up will burn a transmission out in a few miles. not hooking up a kickdown cable is at worse an annoyance.I drove my TH350 for almost a year w/o that hooked up because the qjet I bought on ebay was from an stick shift car and didn't have the extra arm for the kickdown stud.
