Question Kickdown switch bracket for Performer-Qjet

I am trying to hook up my b&m kick down switch for the Turbo 400 and would like to know if anyone has been able to purchase an aftermarket bracket for this situation. 455 with performer manifold and quadrajet carb. A 350 used to live in this car and it was switched to 455 and Th400 over 25 years ago. The throttle spring bracket is bolted in the one hole rear of the carb linkage. I cannot find hardly any pictures or parts for this setup. My throttle cable is held on by a bracket off the carb mount area. Thanks

A turbo 350 cable bracket can be modified to work or an L bracket fabricated to mount the switch.

Thanks man, I used an L bracket and success was achieved 1 am. Tested this morning and it worked first time at 60. So did the wildest. Ha ha funny moment.
