C6 Kickdown help with Sniper EFI on FE
Looking for any suggestions on how to setup a kick down lever/cable. I'm installing a Holley Sniper EFI on my 390 with a C6. The kick down stuff from my Carter AFB don't work and the Holley Sniper is setup like Chevy connections. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I fabricated a bracket to hold the Lokar setup that uses 2 cables: 1 for throttle and one for kick down. The bracket bolts to the 2 factory bolt holes that the original trapeze bolted to on the intake.
Since the Sniper altered the throw and put my pedal too far off the floor, I also swapped to a Lokar pedal assembly that bolts to the floor. It is so much more comfortable.

Zorm,
I think he has some toward the end of his project thread.
Also, cruise the HolleyEFI forums and there is a throttle lever kit folks are using for the travel issues...
