I do not know what the brackets are for in the first two photos, but the last two are for Series II and I would believe the original brackets had some type of coating to protect the cantrail paint. For mine, I plan to use the liquid plastic coating that is typically used for plier handles. The brackets could be dipped to coat them.

Those are early ( S1 & 2 ) engine stiffeners, for the lack of the correct term. They bolt from the engine to
the bell housing much like the ones for later cars.

Thanks! ... I thought the brackets (engine stiffeners) were for the later series ... will they work on them as well? ... The plastidip coating is something I already have and works great.

I've never tried it, bit they should fit. The blocks and bell housings are the same, as far as bolt
patterns anyway.

Thanks for the response ... I'll check it out ..... Was there a reason why they went to the larger/longer tubular ones?
