Projects TH350 KICKDOWN CABLE

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by Firefighter1618, May 29, 2024.

  1. Can I replace the kickdown cable on a TH350 without dropping the ****** pan? And with the transmission installed in the car? I put a different carb on the engine (a Chevy 350) and the current cable seems a little short. Maybe it can be adjusted, I'm not sure without being right in front of it. I'm not even sure if there is a throttle/kickdown bracket mounted. Seems like I remember the throttle cable just laying in there without a bracket.
     
  2. Yes it can be replaced without dropping pan, but make sure you have the right bracket for it at the crb/top end. It's what holds the outer cable.

    4 barrel carb kick down brackets are easy to find and even supported via the aftermarket. A 2 barrel kick down bracket well, one will have to search for a used one.

    There should be an adjustment on the cable where it mounts to the bracket. Adjust it for proper opening and you're all set.

    I replaced mine with a pipe plug.
