One is push and the other is pull IIRC. Build your truck the head men say, but it must be built in such a way...

I believe others have made their own bracket to hold the cable. I just went without it for a couple of years. Two MRI's and a CAT scan....it's confirmed. I'm just not right in the head.

The previous owner had fabricated a bracket to hold the end of the cable and it bolted on to the carb somewhere. Find some way to do this - do NOT go without hooking the cable up, as the transmission will not function properly and may explode and kill small furry animals...or something. John B.

I dunno, I heard this before too. But, like I said I used mine without the kickdown cable for several years (3 or 4) without any ill effects at all. I did "adjust" the cable for good shift points just by pulling it a bit. And I used the manual OD switch when needed. But mine never exploded or even did anything strange in a few years......and it still works great. Although right now it is sitting on the floor of the garage, being replaced by a TH350. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Two MRI's and a CAT scan....it's confirmed.

Having the line pressure up increases the pressure to the pistons that compress the clutches. Yours apparently was enough to prevent clutch slippage and burning out. Its works but is not ideal, best to set it similar to the factory carb. I adapted the pulley from the carb to my throttle body. It took a little tweaking bit it does work.

A 350 lockup or std 350? If you ever drive on interstate. I would highly recommend a 350 lockup. You can rig it on a toggle switch or use a tp sensor. It will better your gas milage and lower your RPMs at hwy speeds. I am wanting a 350 lockup or 700r4. I'll just upgrade the 700r4 as I see fit. Believe it or not, when I was in the woods today, I saw a th250 under a tree. I might go get it for the parts. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/notooth.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/notooth.gif" alt="" /> Re: weber carb install 88 raider automatic [Re: wyleone] #560326 01/31/05 02:41 AM Joined: Oct 2004 Posts: 6,332 In the beer cooler 52degrees Trail Leader Geez, at least for the case.
