Default Re: Engine stop lift bracket - what gives?

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Don_Lightfoot</div><div class="ubbcode-body">This was purchased about two months ago. Finally got around to test fitting it today. Bracket itself is fine and lines up with the manifold just right. However, the length of the one chain is not even close, even with the fat washers behind the bracket at the bolt holes. Seems this chain should be about 5 3/4&quot; rather than 5&quot;. This is for a 69 Chevelle BB.

Were there various lengths of these chains for different applications? Wonder if this chain got swapped out at some point over the years.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

the ones that DON'T say for Camaro or Nova are for the Impala / B body Chevys. They never made a kit for the Chevelle as they had a cable throttle that did not stick. The reason no makes are stated on the instructions and box is because it is for all big cars, no others. They DID make kits for trucks and vans as well.

I have a picture of the two BB kits side by side and the ONLY difference is the length of one cable ... will try to dig up the photo and post it.

I thought this had been discussed recently, the search function got it:
