If it has two male spade connectors at 90 degrees to each other, it's the same switch that was used on the '71-'73 Corvette R.H. head for TCS override; Paragon has them, #2185, $20.00.

Most Corvette guys bypass the TCS system anyway so the distributor gets full vacuum all the time, regardless what gear you're in. That particular switch is dual-purpose - it gives full vacuum to the distributor (regardless of gear position) when the engine is cold (for cold driveability), and when it's overheating (to provide vacuum advance to help cool the engine back down).
