Hi again. So I got the intake and the carburetor and about to install them. I also have the 1481 adapter. What else will I need to install and use this carb on my car. 1973 Challenger with 318. Installing a 1406 on it. Does anyone have photos of a similar installation?
 
You'll need the correct kickdown linkage assembly (or Lokar cable and bracket if going that way) assuming it's an automatic. You'll need a carburator linkage stud for the throttle cable and kickdown linkage. Plus you'll need a 12 volt wire (ignition controlled) for the choke. A four barrel will be a nice power adder for your 318.

When assembling, I like to put a little bead of silicon sealer at the four corners of the block and heads once the gaskets are installed. I don't like oil leaks.

Does anyone have a photo of this linkage stud. Not worried about the kickdown assembly for now.
