Default TPI Swap ?

I'm putting a TPI in my 80 using 1227730 ECM under the dash. I have the ECM but no mounting bracket or tray. What did you guys use. Pics please if you have any would be great,
Thanks, Mike

On the swaps I've done I have always used a factory bracket.

I would think a factory bracket would be easy to find.

Thanks for response guys.

I searched fleabay. They make a few different looking ones. They don't always say exactly which ECM fits them. I just want to make sure I get the right one.

I am 99% sure that the 730, 165 and 749 all share the same physical dimensions. I don't think ECM size changed much during the OBD1 era for GM.
