Hey guys.. Im from the SN95 side of the site. Well me and my fathers project is still underway.. My dad has a 73 Fastback with a 429 BB and a C6.. Well I was in the process in swaping the carb for a new Holley I picked up. Well I snapped the kickdown rod that goes to the tranny.. Were can I get one of these??? Its a 429 with a C6.. Will others fit? I deal with Fox bodys soo much I dont know a ton about these cars..

Any Help would be greatly appreciated

You'll need one from either a 429 or 460 car with the same transmission and carb. If you happen to run across a 429 2 bbl with a good one, it won't work, it'll be to short. The kickdown rods are seldom if ever interchangeable to other applications due to engine dimensions.
