The problem is, the part in the kick 1.4 ROM that loads the kickstartfile from disk uses an instruction that is illegal for an 68040/68060. So a machine with kick 1.4 and 040/060 simply wouldn`t do anything.

Yes 68040 and even 68060 work with Kick 1.3. The drawback is that they are only initialised as an 68EC030, as stated in the handbook of the Blizzrad2060.
