I have a 69 with a 360 I am converting to a 4 barrel List 1850 Holley. I have the C6 transmission. I think I have everything worked out but the transmission kick down. Anyone have anything to share how they hooked up theirs?

Re: 4 barrel Holley from a 2 barrel question
I think I may have sorted this out. Turns out for the Holley car List 1850 Holley makes a bracket HLY20-91 that adapts the linkage on the 4150 series carb to a Ford kick down rod. Then add on Holley HLY20-41 which allows the 2V C6 kick down rod to bolt directly to a 4 barrel carb. Have to wait to see how true this is. But everything is on the way.

Or you can run without a kickdown. It shifts up soon but you can manually keep it in a lower gear.
It depends on how you're driving it.

Re: 4 barrel Holley from a 2 barrel question
Fair enough. I want it to be stock and as close to original running condition as new. I admit when I bought it I was planning on either a 460 swap or using one of my modern 4.6 engines and converting the truck to fuel injection. Almost immediately I worked out that the 360 does everything I need the way I want it done. I found some limitations with the 2 barrel that this swap will address.
But you are correct it depends on the usage. I will report back on how this stuff works.
