51 truck air cleaner bracket

[jim k]

Does anyone have a picture of the bracket that goes to the side of the oil bath air cleaner on a 51 F1 truck. My air cleaner has the cage nut for it but the bracket is missing and I don't know where it attaches to the engine or what the bracket looks like.
Thanks Jim K
Should have said it is a V8 Flat head I assume it gets a bracket since my air cleaner has the capture nut for a bracket

Is this for a 6 cyl. if so, I can send a picture tomorrow. One of the head bolts has a longer nut that allows a bolt from the A/C support bracket to attach to

Sorry guys I should have stated that it is a flathead V8

I've never seen a brace on the V8.

It's possible Bob that it doesn't I may have the wrong air cleaner it's the one that came with the truck and it fits the top of the carb. and clamps tight on it. I just thought since it has the capture nut on the side that it should have a support bracket.

No support bracket on V8's. This one is correct for the V8.

Thanks Barry my air cleaner doesn't look exactly like that but close. It will work its not going to be a show truck anyway just a real nice driver when its done.
