Default Holley 3255 throttle bracket - where's the return spring attach?

I went to swap out my Holley 4160 for the correct Holley 3255 today and when I went to connect the throttle linkage and return spring, I noticed that the throttle brackets are totally different.

The carb is original and was purchased from and rebuilt by Pony Carbs. I can make the throttle linkage work, but where did the return spring attach on the 3255 bracket. I found in my Holley book other pictures with this bracket, but none of them with the carb installed.

Here is my current 4160 throttle bracket:


And here is the throttle bracket on the 3255:


Thoughts?
