Edlebrock Performer carb
Performance Plus Cyclone intake
350
Vortec heads
700r4
I got some throttle linkage kit that's supposed to be for vortec but it doesn't seem to want to work. I'd be at half throttle with no foot on the pedal with the thing installed and I don't want that. And where the TV cable would need to be is nowhere near the correct place either.
One thought I had was getting a linkage from a carburated vortec chevy at the junkyard. Would that work? Any ideas?

No such thing as a carbureted Vortec - all of them had sequential port injection. Remember, the Vortec is an OBDII engine.
You should be able to go to your favorite local speed shop and get a bracket for the carb. You could go to Bowtie Overdrives (
http://www.700r4.com) and get a "TV Made EZ" bracket kit for the TV cable.
