Default 68 Idle Control Question

I have a 68 coupe 327/300 with a/c. Did it have an idle control solenoid that the a/c activated or was there no idle assist at all? Thanks in advance, Jason

Big blocks might have gotten the solenoid. I'm not sure small blocks got them. Do you have the AIM? If the small block with AC got the solenoid, the AIM will show it.

The NCRS judging guide does not listed a solenoid being used on any 327CI engines with a/c in 1968.
