I need help with this, I got from a shift cable mount bracket from a member that was susposed to fit my 73 turbo 400 but after trying to install it the mount holes that bolt into the transmission pan are about 5/16" short of lining up. I am guessing maybe it was from a turbo 350. I am kind of dead in the water with this. the only part I can find on line is for a 74 or 75. Does anyone have one?
or know where I can get one, Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I'll see what I have, it takes me a while to find stuff, in the meantime I don't see why one from a 72 or earlier wouldn't work, camaro, nova any of them, Should be readily available from one of the suppliers, opg, etc.

Great thanks for looking, the part doesn't cross reference to any of the earlier years the only one I have found is Manufacturer Part #: 9793193 which says its for 74 or 75 Chevelle turbo 400, why its different than 73, 76 or 77 I don't know.
http://www.ss396.com/chevelle/FCB-193.html maybe see if yours looks like this one. Thanks

I found the bracket & yes it looks like the one you have in the link. (As near as I can tell, the angle in the pic is weird) I'm not sure what the 73 only is about. I think I got mine from a dealer in the early 90's, It's not factory to the car. I would like to hold on to it if I ever go back to a 400 or get another project. I thought I had 2 but the other one is for the 350. The link I posted says 68~77. Looks like the one in you'r link. $55 bucks is a little steep as well for a simple hunk of metal..

OK I understand how you want to hold on to it. The one from OPGI is on back order and their tech guy said it would probably be 30 days. Ill take a chance on the one above they say its 67-72 and 74-75. The tech guy said he had no Idea why 73 was excluded.
