throttle return spring placement

Hey all, newbie here from Northern Cal. I have owned a 64 cutlass for about a year now and finally registered on the site. I've gone through alot of the forum and got some really good ideas and help...love the site. I'm in the process putting the throttle linkage back together after some cleanup on the top of the motor and can't remember where the return spring hooks to on both ends. I usually take lots of pics but must have got in a hurry and didn't. I know I have all the parts, can anyone help me out with some info or a pic of the linkage of a 330 with a 4bbl? Its still all original as far as I know. Thanks for any help.

We have the 1965 Factory Assemby Manual which shows the carb spring setups which will be the same for 1964.

All you need to do is go to www.wildaboutcars.com and register, then follow the link below and download the section or the page you need.

Thanks for the welcome Dan, and thank you for the great info jrzybob. Wildaboutcars looks like a great resource and I already registered. The drawing of the 65 throttle linkage was a great help (came back to memory after looking at it...doh!) It isn't exactly like the 64 setup but really close and I was able to figure it out from there, Thanks again!!
