This thread has been kinda confusing, to me at least. Part of the confusion comes from the first two pics I posted back at the start of the thread, and the well intended comments from folks who know much more than I. The first pic was "as found" Edelbrock 1406 and throttle bracket and kickdown linkage pieced together from unknown parts, no Eddy adaptor, and parts bent to sorta work. The carb stud was at the front of the K/D rod, and I didn't know any better.
I blacksmithed the throttle cable bracket to align the cable with the TQ linkage when I retired the Eddy carb.
