I am swapping a 727 From a 904 and I have wound up with two kick down levers , i will be using a lokar kickdown cable, which one of these two levers is correct?
Thanks

Exactly. I installed the Lokar kickdown on a 727, using a Demon Street carb. The old lever I had was off a slant six 1-bbl carb/727 setup. I tried drilling a new hole on the lever to give me the right ratio, , no go. I cut the lever and rewelded it. There are levers available which would be the easier route. You want a lever that the carb throttle travel will push all the way back yet at closed throttle the lever rests in the proper position.I am installing a fitech. Looks like I will just have to experiment..I was hoping for a bolt in and go option..

You can try and measure the carb throttle arm length- from the throttle shaft centerline to the throttle cable pivot centerline. Then just make sure the trans lever centerline's are the same
Of course it will function best if at half travel it is at 90° to the cable
It’s still possible u have the wrong lever. There is a few different length 1s. Urs are 1968 and earlier and 72 up B C and truck. A bodies have a flat lever unless u have the newer style. Kim
