I have a 76 650 installed in my 64 . Would a 67 bellcrank work if I install 67 bracket on the q jet?

It took me awhile to find a 64 linkage for my 65 442. Why not use the 64 linkage and just put it in second to pass I do.

What is a "76 650"?

In any case, why do you think you need to change the bellcrank? All you need to do is to modify the rod that goes to the carb to mate to the Qjet. Does your car still have the switch pitch Jetaway? If so, you need TWO switches. Unlike the later cars, the 64s used an inline switch bolted to the intake for kickdown and converter pitch at W.O.T. and a special dashpot with a separate switch that activated the converter pitch at idle. If you cannot fit these to your current setup, you will need to fabricate brackets or install separate microswitches.

Note the kickdown switch with the red boot on this 64 330. You can just barely see the dashpot with the other switch under the air cleaner. Note the yellow wires that run from the dashpot switch to the main kickdown switch and from there to the trans solenoids.





If for some reason you can't make the stock switches work, you can get an aftermarket pull-type switch like this.

thanks for the answer Joe. It is a 76 350. An " expert" told me the 64 bellcrank would not work. Still trying to find it it my mess . Good to know it will work.
Said "expert" was trying to sell me the 67 bellcrank
