Hi everyone. After an 18 month mechanical rebuild I'm getting the FE close to start up. My problem is that the front bracket does not have enough length to slide into the exhaust pipe clamp. If I remember correctly it was not attached to the clamp when I took the engine and gear box out which suggests it may not be the right bracket anyway. The elongated hole looks like a home made job which also suggests something's fishy. The vertical length is 60mm (or 2⅜") and seems too short by about 10mm. Can anyone advise:
1. Whether this is the correct bracket.
2. If the bracket is meant to connect to the bottom of the bell housing (as it does on my FJ). FJ bracket has a different part number to FE, FC & FB.
3. If anyone has a spare if indeed this is a dodgy bracket.
Cheers, Ken.
