Brent - I remembered a bunch of odd parts in with the bellhousing and figured that was the idea last night. But after looking at the collection of parts again I'm not figuring it out. All the packages were still sealed to so I don't think any got misplaced with Keith Craft was dialing it in to the motor. This is a RM6057 bellhousing. Here are a couple of pictures with the various brackets I received layed out. The problem is that none of the brackets have a hole drilled large enough to receive the threaded end of the ball stud. I guess I could drill the bellhousing to mount the stud but I'm not sure how precise I can get the location and then it may be too far rearward without a bracket of some sort to space it forward. The bottom photo has the ball stud in the shipped position. In the top one I removed it so the relative size of the threaded shank could be seen.

I appreciate your help. I must be missing something. Wish they sent instructions with these things or maybe they were lost.
