<p>B9470101 does NOT have the original engine (presently 5 bolt
289). The bracket IS the original Tiger design.</p>
<p>I encourage others to participate in Ron's engine data gathering
endeavors. That said, actually seeing the bracket is difficult. My
Tiger is (has been) on jackstands. I attempted to use my phone to
take an image. Unfortunately the confines are tight and it wants
to focus on the clutch fork. The best (my opinion) identifier
being the radius of the upper "vee" webbing is obscured by the
slave cylinder and adjustment rod. However, when I took a light
under the car a second identifier of the curved over "vee" rails
were quite obvious as it can be seen before the slave cylinder
gets in the way. Score one for the naked eye over modern
technology in this case. I could not definitively discern this
even when zooming in on the phone image.<br>
