Re: 72 k20 project

got the last exhaust mount made for the tailpipe section



the clutch is on the way, may as well look into this.



this has been on my list for a while, but these things are expensive and i kept finding other stuff to buy.

the dodge (3rd gen) hydros use a funny twist lock for the master cylinder. i made a bracket that needed this hole chopped in the firewall.



i plasma cut the shape into a square, and punched some holes in it. then i got home and realized i needed space for the twist lock. so i laid out and made the spacer piece with a holesaw and grinder out of 3/16"



since i was chopping through the stiffening rib on the firewall i made a backup bracket that helps support it and has nutserts in it



painted and installed







hits the back of the bell housing fine even though its in the wrong truck and bolted to the wrong BH..
