Unknown bracket

Hey Guys. Long time since I have posted here. Took the 440 out of my 69 Charger R/T to fix a broken exhaust manifold stud and to do general cleaning. Anybody have an idea what this bracket us used for?  Thanks. ChargerRob

Looks like either some A/C thing or a part of a power steering bracket.....judging by the square hole.

maybe some part of a set up to mount the A/C compressor below the alternator  ?

Whatever it is - It doesn't belong on the back of the engine...

Definate add on, does not belong there.

i had one of them brackets on the 69 440  imperial motor in  mine , when i bought it ,
think its to do with a kick down linkage set up on a C-body only  , as its bolted to the rear of driver side cylinder head ,

I was thinking it might have been a kickdown bracket but of all the big blocks I ever pulled out I have never seen any like that? looks like it would have set too far to the left.

Hey guys. Thanks for the replies.  Nothing was bolted to it and I actually never even noticed it. Gonna remove it and save it in case someone ends up needing it.

Somday some boat owner will appreciate that you didn't pitch it.

Try fitting the holes on the short part of the "L" to a power steering pump. The square hole would be for a 3/8" or 1/2" drive for tightening the drive belt.

That bracket is for a c body.it held a wiring harness. Goes on the left head on the rear.
