Your mopar linkage bolt fits the single hole side and the bracket bolts to the carb with the same offset as the OEM carb. Minor linkage adjustments is all even with the adapter plate.

Here's how to install the bracket to the carb:

Also if you use a spread bore Holley, you can eliminate the adapter. I've used the Holley 6711 it's a 650 mechanical secondary carb to replace a spread bore...

Have you adjusted the kickdown properly???

Set the length on the middle piece, then adjust the slotted piece so it is at max travel when the carb is at WOT.... It sounds like your center piece/link is adjusted to be too long...

You adjust the center piece just so the ball can slip in the clip when it's pulled all the way forward.

Then adjust the slotted rod to be all the way rearward when the carb is at wide open throttle.

I can't find the kickdown in the 70 manual, but here's the kickdown for a 440 from the 68 manual:

440's were not offered in a-bodies in 70...

As long as it will adjust to get the proper position at WOT you will be ok. If it's too short, you can get some threaded rod and hex stock to extend the rod...
