    I just tore down a '72 455 that I purchased recently. The pickup tube has a mounting bracket welded to it. Is this the same as a '71 or are there different p/n's because I've seen them without the bracket? My '70 455 with the obvious 1/2" tube doesn't, but it was a center sump Riviera block.

    They are the same,the one you just got is actually preferred.as there's less change of coming loose.I have both types up for sale,in case somebody needs any.Bruno
