Try looking through the Chevy Duty website. They should have what you need.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Maybe Chris can shed some light on this, I am sure he has a pic somewhere. Regardless, if you still need a pic or not...Chris is a good guy to deal with should you want to buy them new.

Re: Picture of bumper bracket please ?

I forgot about Chris having them .

On my 74, the outer brackets for the 'sport bumper' were the same as what you'd find under any truck, burb or blazer. The inner brackets were the different ones.

I swapped my aftermarket chrome drop-style bumper w/my neighbors beat-up sport bumper from his suburban. I used the outer brackets from the burb & got new inners from Chevy Duty for a 73~74 truck & they had factory GM stickers on them.

I gave the beat-up sport bumper to somebody . . .....

The front bumpers brackets are significantly different:

The rears are that different. The main reason there are different number for the rear is because of Goodmarks parts numbering ( I use their PN#) If you order the correct part, it will work.
