willie Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 I am sorry to hear this. Thought it was going to work out for you Paul. That means the 72 BB cars only had this bracket? Or is my car wrong? When I ordered the front wire harness the wire for the solenoid was there. Paul its very nice for you to pay Dan, but I can straighten out with Dan later, looks like you are still hunting down answers. I have other 71SS"s but nothing has carbs so I cant help with any pics. Sorry. Paul or Dan do you need any more pics of what I do have? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1970mcss Posted August 7, 2020 Author Share Posted August 7, 2020 Not a problem Willie, I talked to Dan and he may have a way to create a bracket that will work. We aren't sure if they ever had them on the car. I'm going to hang on to the solenoids just incase we every find a car with the correct bracket. We'll see what happens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
overdrive Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Paul, I made this bracket with your solenoid yesterday. I don't have an original air cleaner to check fit with, but I used my dropped base air cleaner. I would think that if it fits, and it does, the factory one will, but I can't be positive without testing it. I'll finish it up in a day or 2.

1970mcss Posted August 30, 2020 Author Share Posted August 30, 2020 Looks good Dan, I looks like it should clear everything. Thanks for sticking with it. I'm anxious to give it a try. Let me know what I owe you. Thanks again, Paul L Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
overdrive Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 It's done. It should fit great and there is room for adjusting the solenoid, besides the plunger adjustment on the solenoid. The bracket has bare metal in 2 places to ensure good grounding of the solenoid. Dan 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1970mcss Posted September 3, 2020 Author Share Posted September 3, 2020 Dan, very well done. Can you message me a total including the bracket for Willie. I send payment by paypal. Thanks Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1970mcss Posted September 4, 2020 Author Share Posted September 4, 2020 Willie, it's not a problem. You had shipping expenses and where good enough to send it as a template and made it possible for Dan to figure the other bracket wouldn't fit. Dan did use yours to make mine and anyway it's already paid for. Someday when I retire and can make it to a meet I'll buy you a beer. Thanks for your help.

1970mcss Posted September 10, 2020 Author Share Posted September 10, 2020 Dan, I got the solenoid mounted, It just clears the a/c bracket. I will adjust the solenoid this weekend. It turned out great. I have an extra solenoid if any member needs one. Thanks again for getting this done for me. I would be interested to see if anyone ever finds a factory 70 454 setup.
