I swapped a 6 cyl to 8 cyl 350 a few years back. What you need is a threaded rod with two (or the same thing) on both ends. I don't know what they call them, bought mine from NAPA. The are female and thread onto the rod.. They have a swivel that bolts onto carb and pedal arm (90 degrees). U should be able to find something from autoparts store or summit.com.

Good luck!

Rod ends are the pcs you are looking for. If you look under chassis parts in the Summit racing site , you will find them. You can also slip a pc of tubing over the threaded rod to give it a smooth look.......crazyL
