        The bracket at the front right side of the engine is a very simple
bracket.  An angle bracket with 2 holes, an "R" clip for the fuel line with
screws and washers plus a 7/16" UNC bolt for the side of the block.

The C3OZ-A is a totally different bracket.  I have never seen one on a Tiger
engine; that's the reason for some investigation.  I believe this one would
be mounted to the timing cover but I don't know for sure.  Yes, the NPD part
looks like it could hold 2 lines - the original C3OZ-A only 1 line.

Ron,
That NPD bracket would definetly be functionally the same as the front
bracket on my Tigers.  L bracket and pipe clamp in ONE piece. On MKI Tigers
it bolts to an un-used boss on the block, low on the front right(passenger)
side.  The NPD bracket is cosmetically
wrong though.. looks like a cheap repro..  and why would it need to hold two
lines on an early engine? Gary

I see a little confusion in my words.  The C3OZ-A bracket was mounted under
a water pump bolt on standard Ford engines.   This bracket was mounted
somewhere at the front right on the Tiger engines probably a timing cover
bolt.

I'm just trying to confirm the brackets and their location on the front of
the Tiger engines.

There has been a discussion about the fuel line brackets for the Tiger
engines.

Parts List indicates 3 brackets mounted to the Tiger engines.

@ the rear of the engine
1224792    Plate - Pipe carrier
9116027    Grommet    Mk I
9176015    Grommet    Mk II

@ the right side front corner of the block
1224791    Angle - Pipe clip support    Superseded by 1229865
1229865    Angle

@ the front of the engine
6100292    C3OZ-9180-A    Mk I
6100909                            Mk II

National Parts Depot lists 3 different fuel line brackets.

Bob Mannel confirmed that # 9180-0A is a reproduction of the C3OZ-A part.
This part was mounted under one of the water pump bolts and painted satin
black with the engine; the clip and screw were natural color.  I don't know
if painted is correct for the Tiger engine.

NPD part #9180-1A is the 1965 bracket and #9180-1B is the 1966 bracket.

Anyone have an original fuel line bracket mounted to the front of their
engine?

Which bolt is it under?

Which style bracket was used on the Mk II engine?
