The throttle bracket is correct for the Vacuum linkage.

They probably did some improvising to by pass the vacuum system.
The vacuum switch is still present on the side of the center carb along with the thermo switch coming off the front of the intake manifold.

Most everyone was trying to eliminate the Vacuum linkage early on with these GTO’s.

This ‘64 has the second design LH valve cover with the rubber plug for the optional #614 application.

Cool OEM Battery.
