Does anyone have a picture of the bottom of a Hemi shaker base plate showing the position of the tabs that are spot welded on for the feet?

Thanks for the bump. I am not asking someone to disassemble their shaker hood- that is a lot of work- maybe someone has a factory drawing or has a picture of their restoration. Are there any indentations or markings on the base plate to show where the tabs are spot welded? Thank you for any assistance.

I would check with Scott, but IIRC if you don't have the legs it may because you have a later base. The later bases have a different size stud. Just FYI

This was copied from a factory print.
May seem a bit crude but it shows the location you are looking for on a Hemi base, same location on opposite side.
440- 6 pak shaker base has the brackets in the same location.
Feet brackets were sceduled to be discontinued mid 71 on 440-6 pak bases...later on Hemi bases near the end of production run.
Stud thread size is the same on all bases except the head diameter is smaller on studs used later in production.

Terry,
thanks for the drawing. I will go mark my base plate now. Is the other side bracket in the same location?
