Holley High Idle Bracket Update

[mikester]

Bought this setup and it seems like Holley screwed up on the design. The linkage hits. Anyone have this issue ? It looks like Ive got to modify the bracket a bit to get the linkage to fit right. Maybe notch it back to the hole or just before.
When I called Holley this was the part number they gave me. 20-9. Says it fits 4150/4160 carbs. Am I missing something ?

I have that same bracket and modified it

by grinding and bending it to get the clearance I needed.

What model carb is that ? Your linkage is totally different than mine.

It's a Holley Brawler 650. Consider it a deluxe Holley.

Why does your carb have the Ford kickdown linkage on it? You should be able to rotate the kickdown link back out of the way.

What do you mean ?

Lever to the rear of the screwdriver blade in your pic is the Ford linkage. Is that what's hitting the bracket, it appears so in your pics

The Holley instruction sheet shows it rotated back to clear

Never got an instruction manual. The carb came on the crate motor.
