where to get kick down rod

[daytona kid]

Anyone know where I can find this slotted kick down top link rod, and spring,? for a 68- 440 charger w/holley and w/727.. I've been searching with no luck other than a full set for $300+. I've got everything but that rod and spring.

Do you have a picture, or any clues ...like the model and year of engine & car?

A wanted ad would be a great place to start.

Well since a Holley isn't OE I'm guessing you need a part that works & looks right but if it's not 100% OE correct you can live with it?

Trust me 100% OE correct you'll pay for, functional can probably be found for cheap...

Oh, BTW the one you have a photo of isn't OE correct sooooo...

Well prepare to step up...$300 is what the store bought part costs

Thing is the top rod is the same as a 383 four barrel, the bottom rod is the same as a 383 four barrel.... The middle rod which you say you already have is 440 only.... I'm guessing they aren't new so why the desire for a new store bought upper rod? No problem, at this point it's pretty clear I wouldn't want to sell ya any old junk anyway....

How about this, I want a new one because I don't want a used one, lol., and I guess I should have mentioned that in my 1st post. Also I don't buy anything from individuals in forums. So that said if anyone has a link to a business that sells them new, that is all I need.. I value my time a lot so I won't be replying to any more posts here except to thank someone for giving me a link. Really appreciate everyone taking their time to help so far..
