    WTB: Factory Air Mounting Bracket

    Hey Guys !! Looking for this bracket for factory air compressor mount, #24. It mounts on the chain housing. You can see it peeking out on the side in my engine picture from 12 years ago. Thanks !! George2635B6A0-7584-4B97-B70B-275F0EB56980.jpg5BF01363-A329-4EFC-B4CB-F8BBB01A5D7F.jpg3216809C-5D14-4FEA-8433-C1E3301C5787.jpg

    I have a new one, along with the special shouldered nut (#25). I have yet to figure out how to mount it to engine without an oil leak, though. Although the diagram doesn't show one, there needs to be a sealing washer on that stud, and I haven't found one that works.

    No sealing washer, it won’t leak.

    Well, there's something else wrong in my case then. I tried it, leaked immediately. Took it back off for now.

    That top stud has no oil around it. Every car with factory air did it this way, bracket + shouldered nut. Oil leak there has to be cam feed line.

    OK, I'll take your your word on that, since you are up close and personal with more of these engines in a week than I will be in my lifetime. I don't recall having the cam feed line loose when I tried it, but I must have. Will give it another try next week.
