Decode I rushed to buy wrong parts

That's a quadrajet carb that's why the linkage is that way. GM garb
The old wizzard on the side of the road trick. But man the car drives so good , I drove it home just like that with no air cleaner and a one gallon gas can for a fuel tank. Good looking out though gotta see which carb I will go with and how to match a linkage that will go with the set up
