Is adaptor needed for Edelbrock carb?

Howdy,
I just purchased a used 1406 carb off ebay for my eventual use on the Duster. Since it will be "awhile" before it is needed, I thought I would go ahead and mount it on the parts car that is my daily driver ('88 Gran Fury 4 bbl). It came with an adaptor plate for use on the spread bore manifold. Do I need some type of throttle cable linkage adaptor? I was comparing the two last night and it looks like I will have to cut the fuel line for the rear side input and maybe some type of linkage adaptor for it to work. Any guidance will be appreciated.

On a related issue, it didn't come with the Eddy CD. Anyone have a spare, or the ability to burn a copy for me?
Thanks!
C
