Rich,
There should be a hole in the throttle arm of the carb as
well, about the overall size of a nut for a 1/4" bolt. There is a rubber
~grommet~ that fits in the hole with (normally) a nylon bushing that has a hole
your throttle rod fits into then the rod is secured with a cotter pin. The
ball-stud arrangement is for later cars with a throttle
cable.
I try and salvage them from old 4-bbls whenever possible
because nobody made them in the aftermarket for a long time. If you want
to email me offline, I have a few pics of how it's suppose to
look.

John, If you need one, I have an extra one in good shape. It's yours if you want it. If you have the rod that's all you need.

Rich.........
Thanks for the offer, I have the rod . My question is how does the rod adapt to the carb. With carb I got this stud with ball on the end and on the rod there is a indentation for it to fit into. What I probaly need is some type of clip that holds it together and tahs what I can't seem to locate. Don't have a clue what this clip looks like, I did buy a few packs on the HELP rack but none seem to work......This may sound confusing to you but trying my best here to explain this
Thanks....John
