65 throttle linkage

Are there two different throttle linkage is for 65 cutlasses? One for automatic and one for four speed? Or does the four-speed just not use the switch that is on the automatic linkage? Thanks

That's a switch pitch automatic. The 4 speed does not have those switches and is a separate part.

I don't see why it would not work, either temp or permanent, but it is not correct per design.

The only difference between the AT and MT versions is the use of a fixed bracket with a pivot that bolts in place of the kickdown switch.
