Anyone have the driver side bracket that holds the block to the 5 speed transmission on a ca18det? I have the passenger one, can't find the other one anywhere after I realized it hasn't been there all this time.

Will this be an issue? I figure no one has an extra on hand. I found a spare bracket from a ka24 that I could possibly just cut off some and redrill, though it will be a pain and will require a piece of plate ettached to it. I wonder what it will weld to? Anyone know what the brackets are made of at least? Steel, I know, but what kind of plate would I buy that would last?

It's called a gusset. I would keep it or make something work.
