Anyone have one?? I have the parts now to drop a stock intake and Q-jet on my 69 so I can get rid of that crappy 2 BBL. I am not sure of how the powerglide kickdown linkage hooks up to a Q-jet. Anyone have any pics of this. I have a factory assembly manual on the way, but I still want to see pics of it on someone's car.
Sorry I don't have the answer you're looking for, but a suggestion though. When I went to a Qjet setup on mine (along with 350 longblock), I replaced the PG with a TH350. You'd love the 3 speeds. Like adding a low gear where there wasn't one before. TH350 kickdown cable brackets for Qjets should be fairly easy to find too.

I've had plenty of TH350 cars. I have all the stuff for a TH350, but I really don't feel like getting another transmission rebuilt, don't have the $$ right now. The Charger is sucking all that up. Besides, I want to keep the 69 stock. It has a 307 in it at the moment anyways. I just wanted to put a Q-jet on it to give it a small change.

I went thru the same thing when I put a Q-Jet on my '68 307. All you need to do is lengthen the rod, I think about 1-2". If you hold up the existing one, you can see how far. I cut it in half and welded into the middle so as not to lose the threaded area or the slotted part. When the secondaries open and the trans goes 2-1 at the same time, whooeee!

Thanks Dave, that's what I needed to know. I think I have a spare PG linkage somewhere that I can cut up :thumbsup:

If you don't, let me know, I've got about 3 in my toolbox right now!
