lokar kickdown linkage 727 question on 440

so i have the cable end bolted correctly but i didn't mounted it right. going to fix that tomorrow.

-im guessing the cable goes into a u-turn on the bottom of the transmission to bolt on.

-for the lever, do i have to pull and hold it to the back as i mount the cable bolt and keep it backed. i'm still in the dark on how the transmission lever work.
