zambroh, the kick down cable connects to the bolt on the drivers side of the carb. just rear of the idle adjustment screw. I have the accelerator spring on one side and the kick down cable on the other. No way to post pict sorry. I just played around with different locations till it worked. The accelerator cable goes up on the top of the carb. once everyone wakes up here, someone will post pictures.
