BTW, I did more research on those intake rocker bolt holes, and it's common and normal for ported heads. Some liquid teflon or other sort of sealer should fix you up.

Is that a universal bracket or is it designed to mount in a specific location for our GM trucks?
How is it emptied? Valve or do you actually have to remove it from the bracket to be emptied?
