Everything from the bellcrank back will be the same. I think only the rod to the carburetor would be different. Chuck

So you are saying everything upto or right before the bellcrank will be the same? They say the linkage switches different sides for either 2v or 4v

The early 2bbl linkage went across the back of the intake. Like the small one you picture. The later linkages were all on the drivers side using the two stands to hold them. In the later applications the bellcrank, as far as I know, back is all generally the same. There are various shapes of kick down rods out there but they only need to clear the exhaust and firewall and be long enough to hook at both the transmission and the bellcrank. Somewhere on this site are directions for setting up the kickdown. One lesson I learned is that the springs on the bellcrank have to be original or at least the same length and tension. A lot of people just grab a spring out of their junk box that will fit and have a fit getting the kickdown to work correctly. If you can get the whole setup with the springs you will be ahead. The larger port manifold that you want to use will need the later linkage anyway. Chuck

Chuck I do want to use the larger ported intake. So you are sayibg just run all of the 57and up bellcrank or the whole set up?

Definately the 57 up system. Do you have the linkage for the carbs as yet? Chuck

Linkage as the progressive linkage or the factory adjustable linkage?

Either one. Chuck

Fomoco: To your remark that you really want to run a 573 rather than a 553. If you can find a 573 at a $ you can live with, fine. But, as pointed out, for street use the 553 on a 292 will be fine. In fact Ted's later evaluation on torque, shows the 553 is better up to 3500 rpm. And when you compare the overall point totals, the 553 scores about 98 percent of the later intake & may be available at a lower $..

Pf Arcand, is the 573 still being made or do I need to score a used one?
