Hey Guys,

I'm coming to the business end of my 355 build. And I need to start thinking about some of the little things to get it all happening!

I know that it's essential to run the Kickdown cables on the T700's as they control the Throttle Valve or something...

What I want to know, is how people have hooked up their set-ups to their carbs?

I'm running a Quick Fuel Carby (Same design as a Holley 4150)

So I was going to get one of these brackets.

Then I need to find some form of Bracket to mount the TV Cable somewhere.... I can't see to find one on Summit/Jegs

But I can't get my head around how they sit on the carby, and if I still run the CSR Style Throttle bracket...

I know there are a few guys on here that are running T700's in their Torrys with a Carby setup... I'd love to hear your thoughts and would love to see some close up pics of your set-ups!

Are you using a stock cable or an aftermarket one? You could go with a Lokar style setup along with thier brackets, or if you are using a factory cable with the big plastic end on it, something along these lines perhaps.. http://www.summitrac...arts/HLY-20-95/ (or any of the other similar styles they have)
One hole was for the throttle cable and the other for TV cable.

Hey Jeff,

Yeh, just using the stock plastic end cable...

I just spotted this on Summit

http://www.summitrac...ts/?prefilter=1

I could either just buy that and sell my other throttle Bracket that I have... Or just buy this part and fit it to mine...

Guess it just depends on which style you want to go with....the billet one is how I always go at least

The TV cable is more than just kickdown, it basically controls everything - make sure you have it set up right from the start or you'll cook it, definitely worth doing right.
