did you move the tube to the lower hole in the main bracket, that runs down by timing chain cover? Tim

Hi,

You don't mention the year Cutlass your swapping, but just a FYI 64 through 65-1/2 had a 330/sbo only bracket, edit-65 bbo used a 1 piece bracket, forgot about it, 66 up used one mention that allowed you to swap positions of the one leg.

regards,
Jim
