Top part looks like part # 0060 in here, which is a 68-73 340 throttle bracket. No pivot pin would be for a manual trans.

Yup, LA stick throttle cable bracket.
Bottom photo is vacuum chingadera found on CA cars, attached to right of carb.

(IIRC, vac advance modifier, usually ripped off the cars by the 2nd day, and then a frantic search for it when CA smog inspections arrived...DAMHIK laugh2

I had a 68 Barracuda, sold new in Florida with that green thingy. I always wondered what it did.

IIRC, it killed vac advance except on decelleration, and was for reducing NoX emissions.

I guess the mods don't speak street Spanish laugh2
