Bracket Locations (cylinder heads)

[Rick Allen]

Pretty sure these brackets are attached to the cylinder head bolts at some location on the heads (R2 engine), does anyone have a diagram or can tell me where they should be and/or what attached to them ?

A picture might help. Also recommend getting your hands on a workshop manual.

The long one is the air cleaner support.

The others are for the ignition shielding.

Would you send measurements for the air cleaner support? I need to fabricate one. Thanks.

These (4 of them) attach to head bolts, and the stainless steel ignition shields mount to them.  If you have the SS shields you can bolt these brackets to them, then hold the SS shield next to the cylinder head to determine location of the brackets.  Or, just do some measurements.

Page 56 in the Avanti Parts Catalog shows them, as RegnalBob has posted above.  The Avanti Parts Catalog, as well as the Avanti Shop Manual are essential resources for working on an Avanti.  They are excellent manuals.

Long bracket is support for air filter assy on R2 supercharged Avanti engines  only.

thanks to all who replied to my post with the information I need it, I do have both Factory manuals but I would never have thought to look in the electrical section for the location of these brackets,,,
