Default Girling slave cylinder setup

Hi all,
Does anyone perhaps have a photo of what the original Girling slave cylinder and bracket setup looked like? I would like to confirm how the bracket attached to the block and then the stiffener z bracket.

Any assistance will be appreciated.

The SB first
FE is second
The z backer runs from bellhousing to slave.

Thanks a lot for the photos. I have the exact bracket for my FE. What I am wondering about is why does the bracket have a boss/spacer on the bottom bolt where it bolts to the block? What is used to make u this distance at the top bolt?

Is the bottom fastened to the block with a short bolt or is there a threaded rod that runs through the block flange to tighten the bellhousing on the one side and then the salve bracket on the other end?

The spacer is ther eand angled as the block is angled. This keeps it straight.
I'll have to look at the attaching point as one of my 427's is on the floor with jack stands and the other in the car.

Top bolt is a solo bolt as I remmeber.
Bottom one let me look later today.

This is what my setup looks like. The block is angled but not all that much actually. I still would like to know what the bottom bolt/stud setup is like.

Only two holes in block.
Block is tapered hence the spacer

Thanks. Is the lower mounting held by a nut fastened to a longer bellhousing-to-block bolt or a long stud with a nut on the bellhousing side and a nut on the slave bracket side?

To 1985 ccx, I NEED a part number for the SB version.

Please Please Pretty Please.

My DA engine installer decided on his own do some "custom" fab work.

Well, where's my mount?

"I carried off scrap yesterday"?

Mine was a "one off " that looked much like that. The original builder was a machinist.
