AC bracket ?
Have a 71c w/350. It has edelbrock 1406 with esp performer intake. I think i read somewhere that the factory ac bracket, the horseshoe, wont work with aftermarket intakes. True? Also, how does this attach? With studs. Pic would help. Thanks

For me that stock bracket was too long and had a clearance problem with the fuel line going into my 1406. I simply bought a piece of flat stock from the hardware store, cut a slot in one end, and with a propane torch and bench vice I mimicked the factory bends. Now you can't tell the difference between it and the stock piece. You also need to cut a bit of a circle out of the bottom of the bracket so you can get your oil cap off and on. Just like the factory.
