    Something plugs in to that part pictured above under the dash and the same colored wiring goes to something on the side of the tranny. I will actually track it down when the weather gets below 105 here in Texas So theres nothing on the carb just wiring that goes from pedal to tranny

    The contraption is out of a 1973 gmc c1500 with a 454 and it goes on the pedal bracket or it is the pedal bracket. In lmc its says its on a 74 thru 89 but mines a 73 idk if its some sort of a cruise or kickdown or even a governor. Lmc dosent say nor sell it but it has a picture. Thanks for viewing
