Well finally unwrapped the trans and found freight had broke an ear off luckily 1 that I dont need, my engine builder could weld up some thing but since broken piece is missing I think Im just going to cut off the other BOP ear and call it good

Long as the other mount isn't in the way I'd leave it just in case down the road.

The seller, Major Tom retired USAF has a pretty good idea make it look like a T-350 by cutting the other bolt ear off, might not be good for resale value but I doubt Ide ever resell, I was leaning towards a Gear Vendor OD but this came up, actually came up over 6 months ago but Tomas didn't want the trouble of shipping, might look better under hood WO the other ear anyway?

If you don't plan on reselling, then cutting the other mount off won't matter.
 
I should've taken all the plastic wrapping off when they loaded it at the YRC freight station that I picked it up at but then it might have been held for whatever reasons before being released to me so I guess everyone should watch for this crap to happen, just a Heads Up 🙂
 
Im going to cut the other top bolt ear for BOP off and grind it smooth since I don't need those bolt ears, Luckily
