Looking for PN 2204702, which is the bracket/brace on the right side connecting the engine and auto trans for my 1970 340 'cuda.  Also need the two correct bolts.   

Yes, I know this part isn't critical, but the obsessive/compulsive side of me is taking control, and I'd forgotten this was even long gone from the prior owner's header installation.

Before I call my go to "auto recyclers", thought I'd check in here to see who might have one- they should be on a lot of the Mopars from that era with the LA engines and automatic.

Thanks in advance!

I have one of those brackets, but I'm not sure which side it's for.  Got a pic identifying either?

 I have these and I labeled them correctly I assume.  Notice the one drivers side bracket has the extra hole on a 90 degree ear and the other two for that side do not. .

Not a great picture, but a bit of a challenge getting a full shot of it under the car.  Here is the one that I've got on the left side...

From the parts book the right side has a more graceful curve, without the notches to deal with the starter.

I'm going to dig through my buried transmission parts box and see if I've got one, but I don't think so.  Hopefully pretty common since it was on all 318-340-340 with autos at the time.

Thanks, Floyd!

@71vert340 I think you've got them correct!  The right side seems to have more common applications than the left (driver).

Next up, to find where my trans bolt for that disappeared....

Wonders never cease.  The one I have is RH.  Cover the shipping and it's yours.  If you're going to the Nats I can give it to you there.

PM me your contact info.

@Floyd Follow up post- thanks to you for the brace and to Jon at Roseville for hooking me up with AMK for the correct bolts, I now have matching left and right braces from the 340 to the 727! (installed tonight)

Kudos!
