I've seen lots of brackets like that with the step, but the bottom is something I haven't seen before?

Yup, it was a first for me too Steve.
It was at the Detroit Swap meet yesterday.
The guy selling it told me it was an original unmolested ‘69 340 manifold.

I think someone posted a pic recently of that bottom piece. Tipped up corner on bracket too. Seen that a few times.

Is that a '69 model year manifold, or a '69 casting number/'70 model year manifold?
There was another thread on this recently, if I recall correctly the two best guesses were for coil relocation on a '70 shaker equipped engine, or for A/C clearance at the firewall. In either case, the part number may be listed in one of those two sections instead of in the usual places...?

I think this was it- seems there was no definitive answer after all.
Correct ‘69 340 coil bracket?

Yup that’s my intake, and the casting date of September ‘69 makes it a ‘70 year model. He saw it in person I have no idea why it is mounted on a secondary bracket but you can even see in his picture how it looks like a very original factory piece. The intake is in nice condition with the bad temperature sender ( original ) priced at $150…..back to the stack

I'm pretty sure they were installed on the early A Bodies. I saved 2 of them from I think 65 Valiants or 65 Barracudas. My older brother got 2 Barracuda parts cars and both had them. I've never seen them on the 67 up cars. And I'm thinking it could be for AC cars to move the coil forward to get more clearence for the AC lines that connect to the fittings on the firewall.
