Default Exhaust bracket question

I'm in the middle of gathering parts to convert my TH-400 to a 4-speed.

My car currently has an exhaust bracket that attaches directly to the back of the tranny just in front of the crossmember.

Is there a similar bracket that's used with Muncies?

My parts books aren't helping much. Photos would be great,..or the page number of a catalog or book.

Thanks in advance,
Wes

wnjlt1,..thanks!

I see the ends of this bracket clamp to the pipes. To what does the middle of the bracket attach to?...looks like there are two holes for mounting.

Thanks again!

To the tranny mount. I've got one, and it works great.

If I remember right it can be mounted either way, in front or in back. But, I'm pretty sure it goes under the rubber mount for tranny.

Probably not running 2" pipes - but for anyone that is ... here's a used one for $17.70 shipped:
