Edelbrock 1406 + 1483

This week I got myself a refurbished Edelbrock 1406 carburetor and the throttle lever kit for Fords. I'm going to have a garage put it in because if I'm gonna do it myself it's going to take months. The garage will also do some other things but that's for a later post.

Here are pics of the Edelbrock 1406 carb:

I got the Edelbrock 1483 throttle lever kit. This kit is for putting the carb in Ford cars.

This is how it's mounted. It's basically screwed against the lever that's already there. It has mounting points for the throttle cable and the kickdown rod leading the auto-tranny.

That's what it should look like.
