Well, I thought you were looking for the measurement of a totally stock auto. 289 kickdown rod from the jog back. Guess I was mistaken. If you want the measurement of the gap between the jog and the upright lever, that distance is constantly changing depending on throttle position. That measurement on mine is 1-3/8 inches at the idle position. However, the Holley is not stock and the carb linkage movement could be different than the origional Autolite. Hope some of this will help you fab what you need.
