Turbo 400 Kickdown?

I believe that my 83 had an original Turbo 350 in it, but the PO installed a Turbo 400 in it's place.

The kickdown control was never installed.

I want to install that kickdown switch.

I believe that the switch connects to the bracket that is located at the gas pedal as that bracket looks like that's where it goes. Is this the correct place for that switch?

Also I will need the switch & wiring. Anyone know where to get these.

Pictures of that switch connected up would be great.

One more thing is where does the switch get it power from?

Is it from the fuse box or?

Is this the same kickdown switch that bolts to the gas pedal bracket.

Do you have a picture.

Just want to make sure that it is the right one before buying from you.
