I got 6-7 pair of these, original for our years. $29 shipped each pair. Thanks Randy

msgross · 04-26-2008, 09:51 PM

do you know what holes are needed in the head to mount them? i am looking at going with corvette ramhorns and will lose my mount on the exhaust of my 68

TonyJohnson · 04-26-2008, 10:20 PM

I need one of the longer top brackets (the curved slot) Supposedly the 72 had a 1" longer bracket.

teeitup · 04-27-2008, 06:06 AM

msgross, I'll get a pic of the blue trucks heads on Sat afternoon
Tony, I do have one setup for sure maybe more with the longer top bracket. I don't want to split up the set though
Thanks Randy

Send me the best long set you have. I'll paypal in a minute.

Thanks, Tony

TonyJohnson · 04-27-2008, 08:31 AM

Done.

msgross · 04-27-2008, 03:16 PM

Tony, we could split a set since I only need the lower mount..... I think I can use my 68 upper mount still, is that right?

TonyJohnson · 04-27-2008, 03:25 PM

Mike, PM Randy your shipping info and ask how much extra to send you the bottom from my set. I've already paid him for the set and shipping to me. Pay him the extra for shipping to you and that'll be fine.

So these bolt to the head? Looks like it won't work for me then. I'm holeless!

I appreciate the offer and would gladly split the cost if it can work... any ideas?

teeitup · 04-27-2008, 09:38 PM

I'll get some pics of what I have and what Tony has bought from me. Thanks Randy

teeitup · 04-28-2008, 12:19 AM

Set on left is sold to Tony, I have one more set like that, 4 others with the shorted upper bracket, I didn't get a pic of those. I also have the set on the right. Here is a pic of head where the set on the left mounts. Thanks Randy

msgross · 04-28-2008, 01:07 AM

looks like that made up my decision, atleast until (if) I rebuild my engine and buy new heads... Thanks for the pics, i gotta stick with wHat I have then...

TonyJohnson · 04-29-2008, 08:24 PM

No prob. Just sent it to me, Randy.

Thanks, Tony.

TonyJohnson · 04-29-2008, 08:26 PM

Mike, you may want to look at the low mount alt brackets. I know Skip White sells them and probably some of the board vendors. Hopefully one will chime in. I'll try to find a link and PM you. Don't want to jack this thread.

msgross · 04-29-2008, 10:07 PM

thanks...will do..

ttt for the sale

TonyJohnson · 05-02-2008, 08:00 AM

Got the A/C bracket. Thanks!

Hey Randy,

I am interested in a set, but not sure which set!!?!?!?

Could you give me till Monday to take a look at which I need and get back to you??...My truck resto is about hour away from me and am heading there Friday afternoon....will let you know something Monday am.....

Longhorn Man · 05-03-2008, 02:38 AM

here is how the 69 and up lower cradle mounts, the upper arm uses the same bolt as the cradle, in the left hand side (as looking at these photos) bolt.

Hey Randy,

I'll take a set like the one on the left in the above picture you took (or shown in Longhorn Man's pics) if you still have any?!?!.....PM me you paypal info....thanks

teeitup · 05-06-2008, 07:11 PM

Sorry sold all my ALT brackets at the swap meet. I'm getting a 72 in soon that will have them on it. Thanks Randy

TonyJohnson · 05-06-2008, 07:24 PM

Those extra long '72 brackets are the bomb. Even though they're only supposed to be 1" longer, the slot is longer as well. The one I got bolted right in and gave me a LOT more play...

gcburdic · 05-06-2008, 10:42 PM

Dang it.....I'll keep my eyes open for the 72 thread!!!....Thanks Geoff
