Any pics or links would be much appreciated! My neighbor dropped by(he has a '63 Valient) and said I have the wrong linkage. I'll try and post a pic of what is currently in the car when I get home. Thanks again!
Thank you very much for the information. Are those diagrams from the factory manual? Are the linkages attainable in the used market or are they made from unobtainiam? I also need to see how this AC system was originally set up on this car. It has a "Frigidaire" sticker on the inner back window. I have a couple of airboxes but don't know exactly what is missing from the AC system. You can see the dryer and what I think is the expansion valve mounted on the inner fender well.No. "Factory air" in '64 was just factory installation of the same under-dash add-on A/C unit you could get installed by the dealer. New for '65 was a combination A/C + heater which covered up the area of the firewall where the rod would go through, necessitating the cable. Your '64 would've come with the rotating-rod setup. Here's the '65-'66 factory-air linkage setup. If your car has this, someone put it there after the car was built.

That is not a '64 issue air filter assy. either, that is probably a later engine transplant w/a cable operated carb on it. How about some actual throttle assy. & cable hook-upView attachment 1715118483 This is a '64 with factory air(Not complete. Currently missing compressor/bracket & lines). Could it of had a cable due to the factory air? Might you have a diagram of the factory air equipped linkage setup?
The only ways to use a cable on that ride is to us a v-8 pedal unit
See post № 6 of this thread; it's not a "V-8 pedal unit". It was used with V8s, and also with Slant motors with factory air in '65-'66.
I didn't think they started using the "CHARGER 225" label 'till '65, I can only get at one of mine now, it has a yellow label that may be the " use noYes, that is a legitimate '64 air cleaner (and a legitimate '64 air cleaner decal). It's the "small 'n' tall" variety described today in this thread.
There are no details about this engine that suggest it's not a '64 item…but there are no details that suggest it's not a '65 item. There are minor details suggesting it's not a '63 or a '66 motor.

No, the OP doesn't necessarily want to switch throttle linkage, He wants to verify if the kick-down set-up He has is correct based on a friends comment. He may very wellSounds like you want to switch to a rod-input linkage. If so, why? Seems your slant car came w/ the cable throttle linkage, so if it works, you should keep it. Matching carburetors are more common than the rod-input type. If you don't have the kick-down linkage, I think the linkage from any 1967-1980's slant engine would bolt up, probably including trucks and vans.
Re compressor and brackets, I think your car would have used the same Chrysler RV2 compressor used thru the early 1980's, so one from any slant should fit. Those are reliable and easily available, but they are a heavy beast. If you don't care about original, the later Chrysler C-180 compressor is smaller and more efficient. Even better is the Sanden used on some 1977-78 Volare/Aspen but might need a thinner battery for an early-A. There is an AC thread w/ many photos of options.
Somebody was smart to upgrade your brake master cylinder from the single-pot to a dual system.
Kinda figured, seems that is still the basic system used only on computers now, click on reference# box highlighted and part#, descriptions, & sometimes dimensions areYep, different part numbers. Those are part type code reference numbers as found in the illustration section of the FPC.
