This bolt-on valve body sub-assembly enables “part-throttle kickdown” (passing gear, DRIVE back to SECOND) without having to depress the gas pedal all the way to the floor; 3-2 kickdown will occur at aprox. ¾ throttle (instead of full-throttle). There is no effect on 2-1 kickdown. Nice feature to have particularly with multiple-carburetor applications, i.e. Six-Packs, dual four barrels, etc. as it allows kickdown (to second gear) without fully opening the carburetors. Chrysler used 2 types of part-throttle valve bodies; this is the more universal type and will mate to any 1967 or later valve body which has the fluid feed passage for this accessory (most 1967 with upper casting number 2538956, 1968 upper casting number 2801856 and 1969-1970 upper casting number 2892348). If you are unsure whether your 1967 valve body has the necessary fluid passage, e-mail us for a picture to I.D. the presence of the passage; eBay's new policy restricts e-mail addresses between buyers and sellers; contact us for technical information or pictures by substituting the "@" symbol for the "at" in the following: tflitepatty"at"comcast.net. A special button-head screw is supplied to address clearance issues when installing on the 1960-1970 valve bodies or later model “simple” style of valve body; also included is installation info RETUR |
