"Kickdown" linkage is actually a misnomer.
It is, in actuality, "Throttle Pressure" linkage. It controls the application
pressure of the bands and clutches internally to the trans. As Gary said, it
causes the bands and clutches to slip[ under load, eventually frying the
trans...like driving with a 4-speed clutch half-engaged all the
time.

Nick,
I have that info. in my files but bottom line, he will destroy his
transmission; best he get that linkage properly installed and
functioning.
Most likely allowing clutch-packs to slip under load;
friction/heat...failure.

The
owner of a '64 Barracuda pulls into our cruise last night. Showing us his new
360 LA install. While talking about the intake and carb he said I could not
hook up the kickdown linkage, so I'm just going to leave it disconnected
because I don't need passing gear anyway. I thought doing this would harm the
tranny, but could not remembered what it was. Does anyone know what the
problem or damage may be so I can pass it along.
Thanks,
Nick
