Engine to Bell Housing Brackets

Post by C5loadmaster »

Does anyone have a good picture of where these brackets are placed on the engine. My engine went out months ago for a complete rebuild. Although my engine rebuilder took many pictures of the engine before dissassemby, he didn't get pics of where the brackets go on the engine/bellhousing.

Any help would be appreciated .

Excellent help! Thank you. Looks like I have only one of the required two brackets. I have a right (passenger) side bracket. Anyone have a spare left side hanging around? I saw a pair on eBay for $21.50 with the shipping.
Don't want to get stuck buying two if possible.
Thanks,
Matt

Found my missing bracket in a box of parts from the removal.
