Autolite 1100 return spring

Can anyone tell me where the throttle return spring attaches to the carburetor and where the other end attaches to the car? A picture would be much appreciated if you have one. 1966 Mustang. Right now I have it attached a exhaust bolt but I don't think that is right.
 
Hi, most return springs for the Autolite 1100 are hooked into the freeze plug like dimple on the front of the intake log. Actually saw that from the factory. For myself, I made a bracket to go under a exhaust manifold bolt to attach the spring to. Right now, I don't have any good pictures of it. If you need, give me a couple of days to get some. Hope this helps.
 
Mine goes to a drilled hole in the exhaust flange at the exhaust manifold as pictured below.
