Here are the pictures of the finished linkage. we had to cut lengthen and weld an inch into the throttle bracket at the rear of the carb, i bought the cruise bracket from Edelbrock. And had to use the old cruise stud off the QJ to use as the kick down mount.

Looks good!

I have an old Edelbrock drop base Made in the USA maybe & used a Mr. Gasket lid (now the second one) since I did not want the Edelbrock script.

This top is the recreation of the Mr Gasket top. Same one used for the Ford Hipo 289.
