different kickdown cables

[oldolds]

the kickdown cable for a turbo 350 transmission in a van is different then one in a car or truck.

Question? Or a statement.

 

[oldolds]

statement. when i go to order the cable they tell me they are all the same but mine is about 18 inches long and the shortest i can get the regular size is 24.

 

[oldolds]

does the turbo 400 have a kickdown cable?

 

[pagrunt]

It works with a electric kick down switch.

 

[oldolds]

wonder why the cable is so short. it is in a 1970 van

 

[MrSony]

Some are adjustable, some aren't. Some are cut to fit, some aren't. Just measure whatever you have, and go with the closest you can get. Longer is best case scenario than too short. TH350s use the cable with the metal slot, it floats on the carb stud but gets pulled at wot.

 

[oldolds]

i will try that.

 

[Ribbedroof]

Would an 18" cable even reach the throttle lever?

 

[MrSony]

oh, is yours the style that goes from the pedal to the trans, not the carb?
