RD372 Throttle Linkage

Help! Does anyone have a stock, unmolested throttle linkage setup on an RD372 in one of the larger trucks (R185 on up)? This would have a funny-looking Holley 885FFG carburetor. I'm specifically looking for the location for the throttle return spring or springs. I've got new springs but they are too stiff and one end was wrapped around one of the governor screws. If anyone has stock linkage and springs, could you send me a picture or pictures at dwzehr@aol.com? I would appreciate any and all info. BTW, I've already looked at my parts and service manuals and came up blank.
