I don't blame him for listing it. L98 lets us know that it's TPI.

IIRC, the accesory "brackets" on a 262 V-6 are for the most part one single stamping that covers most of the front of the engine. Yeah, it, or "they" should work.

Pupil,

If it is a stock 350 in a ThirdGen, then it's an L98. The "L98" RPO designation is for a 350 TPI engine. If it is truly a TBI, then it is either a L03 (305) or a replacement engine from a different vehicle. Several full sized GM cars and trucke were equipped with a 350 TBI, but not 'F' or 'Y' cars.

Regardless, the brackets should bolt up and work.
