8ba anti chatter rod brackets
 

Is anyone still making (for sale) the anti chatter rod BRACKETS for the 8ba flatheads when installed in earlier cars, like a 1932?

I had to make mine
used a threaded rod with a nut welded to the end for the frame connection
nuts, washers and a bit of pipe as a spacer for the motor side.

Used to be a guy who advertised them on eBay. Haven't checked in a while. I made some for the 8ba in my '39 p/u but the ones on eBay were much nicer looking.

From an older post:


UPDATE:
I just talked to Mark Seitz today, April 5, 2020. His correct phone number is 234-600-8804 and he charges $60 which includes shipping for a pair of his brackets.

His address is the same:

5345 Parkman Road NW,

Warren,OH 44481

I just laser cut about a dozen brackets over the weekend. I've got them tumbling right now. I've made many sets of these for guys and recently thought to add them to the website rather than as a special order item.

Can you send me info and pics? I have an 8ba in a 36 Ford Cabriolet. Price and availability?

Here is a picture of the brackets I’ve made. These work with both the cast and the stamped bellhousings. The main bracket is laser cut from 1/2” steel and they include laser cut 1/4” spacers so you don’t have to modify your rods. I plan to add these to the website this week when time allows. Feel free to PM me for more info, or reach out to me on my website.

Thanks
