Default B body 4 speed brackets

Hey all. I was wondering if someone out there with a 68-70 B body with a 4 speed that doesn't have a motor in it could take a measurement of the bracket on the frame that holds the pivot for the Z bar. I am converting an auto to a 4 speed and I need to know where that bracket goes relative to the framerail. If someone could measure it and post a pic showing how far one aspect of the bracket is from some other fixed point on the framerail, that would be terrific. I tried measureing it up on a finished car but it was too tight to get a measurement that I'd be confident with. I hope I am describing what I want well enough. The car is going in on monday to have subframe connectors welded in, so I'd like to get the bracket welded then too. Short notice I know, but hopefully.....Thanks in advance for any replies.

Well I was lucky enough to track down a friend with a 68-70 b body 4 speed car with no motor in it, so I guess I will post up some dimensions for anyone else that needs the location of that bracket. Cool little side note, I took the measurements off the rarest Hemi hardtop in Canada. An honest to goodness 70 Hemi Coronet R/T plum crazy 4 speed super trak pack car. Rediculous. Anyways, the rear end of the bracket is set 1/2" from the inboard side of the frame rail and the front edge of the bracket is set 3/4" from the inboard side of the frame rail. Looking from a front to back perspective, the front edge is 6 1/2" back of the very rear edge of the circular "washer" or reinforcing ring that the bolt for the upper control arm passes through. Hopefully the pics explain it better.
