Would anyone have  a 70 ebody 340 engine mount bracket for sale .? As this one has a crack please see photos I think it the passengers side . Not sure if it can be welded and fixed . I was cleaning all the dirt off ready to be painted and this what I found. I could pay pay pal But I do live in Australia,thanks for looking cheers  :australia:

I think an hour or so with a die grinder, MIG and a 4" grinder would probably get you where you want to go if there's no luck regarding a replacement. Being in Oz throws a "spanner" into the works, eh mate? Good luck either way  :cheers:

Good luck finding one.
Proper welding can make that as good as new if search fails.

I'd just be welding that. Passenger side has less work to do that the driver's....

Drill a small hole at the very end of crack.
V notch both sides and weld away.

It's a common problem.  I prepped mine for welding.
