Default kick down

I recently had my 411 gear box rebuilt and demanded that the kick down be added. They simply replaced the throttle body for a later model. This has transformed my cars performance. Interesting I read in an article in Motor in 1975 , the last of the 411s and the first of the 412s that the boxes had been modified by Bristol . I never discovered whether the late model 411s suffered this fate .

NB my 411 is a series 2.

Having just purchased an early 412 but not yet taken delivery I will be interested in its change down pattern .
