If your Shift Bracket looks like This 1,.......<br /><br />It bolts Directly to the 3 cast bosses on the side of the Riser.........<br /><br />

<br /><br />The bosses are visable in this pic....<br /><br />

<br /><br />2 on the back edge,+ 1 near the leading edge/retaining stud area of the Riser.......

Who ever suggested using long studs helped greatly. i had some 1/4" round stock cut 2 12" pieces put them thru the end holes in manifold, give you just the leverage to make a hard job easy.
