I'm looking to put a Carter AFB carburetor (9503s) on my 1960 Cadillac. But the throttle lever only has a single hole for the throttle rod -- nothing for the TV/kickdown rod to the transmission. Anybody know where I can get a kickdown adapter?

I had a Holley on my 390 in the '60 CDV, and I made my own lever and attached it to the Holley Lever.

The diagram and measurements I received from Michael Stamps, and then I transferred those to suit the Holley.   I made up a cardboard template first, then worked on the metal piece when I got the pattern right.   But, you get the idea.

The measurement from the throttle shaft to the TV pivot hole is critical.
