I'm adding elect start & generator to a 1962 Speeditwin 28hp, 282002C. On the starter side the starter bracket was in place. On the generator side I replaced the original bracket with the generator bracket. All matches up, clears and looks fine except. The original configuration has an additional cast aluminum piece bolted on both ends connecting the starter bracket to the bracket now replaced by the generator bracket. Of course that piece will no longer fit with the gen bracket in place. I can't find a picture or part# anywhere to tell me if there should be an additional piece to bridge the gap and connect the 2 brackets over the carb. Do'es anyone know? I'm concerned with torque/stress from the elec starter cracking its mounting bracket.
