Default Rookie Mistake - Trans Mount, etc.



So I... um... lost all the pics that I took when I yanked out my transmission.

I've done a few clutches in the past so the standard Chevy stuff is no problem, but the thing is... This is my first transmission pull on a C3.

Does anybody have pictures of how the brackets and trans mount go together on the center cross-member (under the tunnel/console) for a muncie 4-speed in a '72 small-block? I painted everything so I can't even look at the wear spots. Any pics or diagrams would be way-helpful.

Thanks!

Default Idea for you

Idea for you.

I do not have a photo handy, but suggest you check the Corvette vendor catalogs for pictures as to how this goes together, Zip, Corvette America, ect, have assembly dwgs in their catalogs.

And suggest you get a Assembly Instruction Manual (AIM) too. Invaluable resource.

Hope this helps.
