I've made the mistake of taking off the manifold and not documenting all parts/placements. I've also removed the carb. Had the manifold cleaned and painted. Now I need to put things back together. Does anyone have a photo of a 71, 440, 4bbl, original "old iron" manifold that shows how the throttle bracket, springs and this other bracket attach?(see picture) I've spent a lot of time looking through forum photos and Google image search, but can't find anything that looks like my set up. I think the throttle bracket mounts on the 2 intake bolts closest to the firewall? But I cant remember where the smaller bracket mounts and how the springs work in. I know the rusty throttle cable (in the picture) mounts up to the bracket, but I'm lost on the rest. Thanks again for helping this rookie mechanic out.
