    Hello. Having trouble with my dashpot setup. The accelerator bracket from the carburetor does not touch it (see photos). Believe the carburetor is original (Rochester Quadrajet), but because I had to replace the intake manifold (from an aftermarket Edlebrock back to an OEM-type cast iron) I had to find a replacement dashpot bracket. Believe I got the one that should go here. Thoughts? Problem with the carburetor, with the dashpot or with the bracket? Thanks Rick Dashpot from side.jpg Dashpot from front.jpg

    X2 w/ what Nick said...wrong dashpot. There is no 1/2" spacer or something under the carb, right?

    Nick and Frank, thank you. Don't believe there are any spacers under carb, but will check. Can any of point to the correct dashpot part number for this car and who carries it? Thanks, Rick
