Change a 904 to manual valve body

Are you the one who butchered your Dart? Cuz it sounds like you're just following suit with the sloppy-*** job you're doing jacking around with your kickdown.

Gratefully no. I bought this as a project. And even worse, is that the guy I bought it from sat with it for years, didn't remember who the guy was that actually did the slant to 360 swap and so he had absolutely no clue how to get in touch with the guy who did the swap. Or he did the swap and wouldn't admit to it. Either way, no I purchased it and inherited the kickdown saga. I've done a lot of work on this car and hopefully this is the last part. And for the record, I'm not a professional builder, so the "slappy *** job" I'm doing is the best that I can offer at the moment, so thanks for the input.
