Hello from Thornbury, Ontario

Chicken Lights…The tranny is a Turbo 400 automatic and the chrome rear end was originally Oldsmobile but changed to Jaguar XKE Independent Rear End Suspension with inboard disk brakes…

I caught the inner disc brakes, but didn’t recognize the rest of the diff

I have to figure out how to setup the kickdown on a TH400 this week, actually. Did you use a kit or....? We have the switch installed on the gas pedal, and there’s a kickdown on the tranny, I’m not sure if I need a solenoid in between

Install a micro switch on the carb linkage, so at WOT the switch closes. One side of the switch goes to +12v, other goes to the trans. No solenoids needed.
