    The 72's had an electric solenoid/bracket assembly. Originally 71's had a dashpot, and later they came out with a solenoid and bracket to replace the dashpot (I think I have one of those laying around here I can sell). I'm not sure if 70's ever originally had anything, or even if the intake is drilled/tapped for a bracket.

    Electric and vacuum. The plug that attaches is part of the wiring harness and is operated by a switch in the trans.
