Watson, on the backside of that engine mount is there a bracket??? Is that just the tip of it in the photo on the right hand side? Then it would continue to the backside of that engine mount? Thanks. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

Hey Paul, were they brake hoses?
I had to bend the bracket back into shape, so I don't know what the bracket was suppose to support. If this bracket is for the fuel filter (qa1142's guess), then I'll cut it off, because I'll mount the fuel pump/filter in the front of the car. BatAc, I was refering to the red bracket welded to the red piece in the center of the pic. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

Not brake lines, they go under the car.
I think they were fuel lines. Been way too long ago. |

Watson, I know the bracket you were referring too. Don't know the purpose of it though. This (the engine mount) is one of the pieces I need to order before I start dismantiling, drilling, cutting etc. this whole hell section. There seems to be discrepency when I'm trying to order this whether it has a bracket. Mine seems too ('74). Since you've entered this hellish place thought you might know though.

It is for the fuel filter on cars to 74. the filter snaps into it, if you are putting it up front, you can cut it off.

Sure I see you beleave Scott but not me. :finger2: (IMG:style_emoticons/default/slap.gif)
Fuel filters on 72 and 74 were square with plastic seam down the middle that went into the slot. You'll have to buy me a drink and make me forget all about it sometime (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drunk.gif) |
