One kind is attributed to EMPI, and mounts with straps over the transmission mounting horns. The other has a plate which uses existing transmission assembly bolts to mount to the bottom of the transmission. These, almost always, result in transmission leaks. Of the second variety, there are several variations. Many of them are made so the spring will bolt to the transmission mounting plate by means of a hole drilled in the spring. Others have a sleeve on the mounting plate that holds the spring in place. The kind with the hole drilled in the spring are likely to break at that hole. There are a number of ways that the springs are held in place or rest against the axle ends. They all work. Tim Dapper
