No it wont.
If the pan is square with the corner cut off and it has a cable running to the throttle you have a Turbo 350. If the pan is odd shaped and it has a electic kick down then it is a Turbo 400. If it only has 2 foward speeds then it is a Super Turbine 300.

does anyone here have the turbo 350? could you please post a pic of how the kick down cable is hooked up, either gas pedal or carb throttle arm. also i removed the cable from mine, it would not go into the 3rd gear manually, i measured it and it is 32 inches, where can i get the correct cable? does it really matter on the lenght of the cable and if so why??
thanks

The length of the cable will depend on how you want to hook it up since it is not an original application. Some applications had the cable hooked to the carb, and others had it hooked to the gas pedal.

Lokar makes a nice cable and bracket setup. I saw it at a friends hot rod shop on a custom truck. He had it hooked to the carb on the drivers side along with the throttle cable.
