HELP!!! Carb Troubles!!!

I just bought a reman carb for my g/f's 70 Ranger w/ a 360. The problem is, this damn carb has a vacuum choke on it, but it didn't come with any fittings to put on the damn thing. Here's another problem....I have no idea what brand carb it is. It doesn't say on the carb, and it didn't say on the box. It's a good carb, but I can't hook the vacuum up to it cause I don't know what kind of fitting I need to put on the little threaded plug thats on there. Any and all advice will be greatly appreciated.

HELP!!! Carb Troubles!!!

I don't know that I have ever seen a carb with vacuum choke. Is this a 4-brl or a 2-brl? Becasue you state it was for the 360, I'm guessing a 2-brl. I usually use the carb body for ID purposes. When looking at it from the front, if it's wide, it's like an Edelbrock (or Carter), if it's long (front to back), could be Holly or Motorcraft. Hold off for the carb guys, I'm sure you will get better info...
