Is anyone running an Edelbrock carb 1406 600cfm or that type on their 65 or 66 Mustang. I have had mine on their for a while. My question concerns the throttle linkage and the gas pedal. In order to get full travel I had to take the stock linkage from a 4100 and thread the rod another inch or so. Allowing me to screw the part that hooks to the gas pedal linkage further down. Also, I have to pull the gas pedal linkage forward till it is hitting the rear of the intake to get enough travel. Is this common? If I don't pull the pedal linkage so far towards the rear of the intake it will make the pedal sit too low in the car. Also, I bought the Total control porducts linkage to replace the stock one which I am afraid might break or fail one day since I had to thread it more and it seems to bend a little. This Linkage was a little too long - due to the pedal having to be so close to the rear of the intake....TCP said I could cut the linkage down a bit...and of course add a washer or nut to the carb side to keep it from rubbing....
Is it possible I have a bad gas pedal rod that is bent wrong or something? It goes out of the firewall on the engine side and then it is bent on an angle towards the rear of the intake before going straight upwards. It looks very similar to the one in my automatic car....obvisouly with out the kickdown portion. Any help would be appreciated.
