Default 1968 Firebird 350 accelerator bracket question

On a 1968 Firebird with a 2 BBL carb and turbo 350 Trans is the accelerator bracket different for a 2bbl verses a 4 bbl carb? Looking for a 2 bbl bracket picture if possible.

Thank you,

Tom

Yes, they are different. I do not have any pictures handy, sorry.
I do believe I have an extra 2 BBL bracket boxed up somewhere if that is what you need.

The accelerator cable is shorter for the 2 bbl than the 4 bbl.

Thank you for the replies and sorry for the delay in getting back to this. It's been a crazy couple of weeks. I have several brackets, just wasn't sure if the 2 brackets were different in 1968. Sounds like they are. Much appreciated. Tom

I have a bracket and mint throttle cable if needed. Paul

I appreciate the offer, however what I have is working. Just wasn't sure what the difference was between the two brackets. Not really sure which one I actually have on the car. Tom
