Ok well I took off the brackets from the 305 over a month ago and now I can't remember at all how they were mounted. Does anyone have a pic or can take a pic of these things so I can get an idea of how they were?

Thanks.

 

There are some very good photos in the "father/son swap project" sticky in the top section of this forum.

I know it's a long thread and I wish I could tell you what post # they're in, but I'm afraid you'll just have to look for yourself (starting in the middle pages would be a good bet).

 

Thanks I guess I will dig through them. I have been searching and just can't get any luck with it.

 

Ok I am assuming I need to cut the top bracket like in this picture.

 

Correct.

And put a spacer the same length as the width of the exhaust manifold in the front header bolt position, with a stock length bolt.
