Default Radiator Support Replacement

Got the rad support out of my 70 SB the other day. Its in such bad shape I think I'm going to go with a repro unit rather than try to repair it. It appears to me that the replacement rad support doesn't come with the bottom brackets welded on it. Maybe because the same support handled a number of different radiators? Anyway, how do I know exactly the right spot to weld the brackets? Does anyone know of a vendor that supplys a rad support with the bottom brackets attached? Thanks.

I don't know about the 70 but both the 69 and the 67 I purchased from Dr Rebuild had all brackets in place

Jer- what happened to your signature picture? You used to have a view of those beautiful two barrels but it disappeared a few weeks ago. Maybe no-one mentioned it to you (kinda like that piece of stuff between your teeth) so I thought I'd let you know.
