So finalizing engine details and need a little help with mounting brackets.
This picture shows mounting bracket in place.

Could some post what I should be seeing if correct. Zoom in on last pic and you can see outboard bracket. Trying to also determine where that attaches.
Thanks…..

TOT...don't think there's a mounting tab on that side..the one on the dr side has the tab that the clamp for attaching the speedo, clutch, and throttle cables is also connected

Yes, I believe the tab on the one side is to clamp the cables in place, not mount to the case.

On a different note, I see you installed turbo valve covers on the exhausts. If you ever plan to check/adjust the valves with the engine in the car (and bolted up) you need to mill/shave some of the fins around a couple bolts. Otherwise they won't clear the trailing arm frame mounts. There are a couple threads about it.
Ask me how I know..

Yes kind of……..not sure I know what you mean on Z bracket….i see a bracket on outboard side and assume it must attach to something.

On valve covers ……will be changed before installing in the car…..but have a set of original look alikes ( SC) that are aluminum and purportedly won’t leak. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) vs magnesium originals. Now to find them.
