350 RUNS! carb sensor connecter????

ok. finally!!!! got my 350 running. holy **** that **** sounds hella ****ing good. one problem. won't idle whatsoever. i figured out by looking around on here i had the sensor connecter for the coolant temp sensor on the driver side between 1 and 3 sparks on the carb so i put that on the sensor but cant find the connector to go to the carb. front right, just a littleslide tab, throttle position sensor i think? anyways i cant find the thing to connect to it. can anyone tell me where it comes off the harness or the colors of the wires/connecter anything would be helpful, i have been allover everything and cant find it, also could this be the reason my car will not idle? ive looked around on here about idleing issues but figured i should get this carb sensor thing squared away b4 i try to troubleshoot that if this doesnt fix that. still got stock 305 chip and everything so maybe it just cant idle the 350? donno. but i got it timed and it sounds so so much better then when it was way retarded. also my hedders are doing the glowing thing if i keep it running. looked around on here about that too but my timeing is good, 10 deg. b4 which i found it said on here is best for 350 with 305 chip still. but damn them headers get red hot fast, im sure is doesnt help the are cheap thin **** but they are just temp till i get coated 2055's. anyways, again any help much appreciated.

Is the part you are seeking connected to Item 71?

hard to say from the angle but it looks like i need the one that connects to 79, right in front of the throttle. 79 looks like it, looking for the connecter that goes to it, donno why i cant find it on the harness
