It also uses a different cross member.

True! Fortunately, I have a friend that adapted his 2004R to a TH400 cross member so we are just going to swap. The one I have is custom and allows you to remove the pan without removing the crossmember.

The correct kickdown switch for a '68 Firebird mounts to the carburetor.







They've gotten much harder to find over the years. There was a gentleman who advertised in Smoke Signals, Tim Doonan, who used to rebuild them. Maybe check with him?
