Tried every bracket under the sun. GM, Ford, Factory, aftermarket, etc. And I've tried that one. The one I have is LITERALLY the only bracket that works in my case. It's just one of those weird things. It HAD to be off of a 76-80 car with a 4 barrel, and a TH350. The 75 and back intakes use a different bracket, the two barrel bracket is different (too far back, so I'd have to get a new throttle and a different length kickdown cable), and only cars with a Th350 and cable activated kickdown used the cable. Most of these brackets I assume were either left attached to the cables in the car, bent and removed, thrown away, or scrapped with the cars. These are hard to find, and those that have them won't give em up. The Buick intake is so flat, that brackets like this:

physically won't fit on the intake, hell, I have to use a spacer just to use a quadrajet, as the throttle arm hits the intake! It's a very odd and specific situation that I was in. Keyword
was. And for those interested, this is the 68-74/5 style bracket:

And yes, that carb is not the carb I'm gonna be using. The one I'm using is a later style qjet (that one was off a '70 455, hence no nub for the kickdown cable) that has the longer arm for the kickdown cable nub.
