Brackets, Brackets, Brackets! Options

Morning fellow 914ers!

Well, i cant seem to find ANY info online re this so hoping someone can help.

I'm talking engine heater blower brackets and the correct one for a '73.

I have the single hose outlet motor (which i believe is correct for a '73), but with the dual hose attachment so I can run hoses to both heat exchanger inlets (Passenger and Drivers sides).

However, I cant find a single picture that shows the actual bracket and motor installed. Just lots of pictures of the installed motor, but with no shot of the bracket.

I've added a few picks of various installations which look correct, and a picture of the bracket i "assume" is the right one?

Thoughts guys?

Cheers

Chris

The bracket posted in the first group of pictures is for the pre '73 cars where the heater fan was mounted above the engine fan housing. '73 and on has the smaller mount welded to the shelf on the body below the relay board.

The almost fully loosened clamp goes over the front section of the mount where there's a lip, and then the fan is slipped in from the front between the mount and the clamp. There's a lug on the fan body that sits against the forward edge of the clamp, not under the clamp. Lug is visible just left of the motor wires in the first picture posted, and in wonkipop's pic with better lighting.

For the pad mentioned, I usually use a cut down piece of old intake runner boot. It slips in between the mount and the fan motor. Easiest to wiggle it in after the motor is slipped into the loose clamp.
