STC Fitting already updated???

G'mornin Y'all

I didn't think the STC fitting came with a bracket from the factory?

Opened mine up this morning...some of the bolt were loose enough to unscrew with just my fingers...cover was still sealed. After removing the cover and seeing the bracket I'm assuming either the fitting and bracket were updated....or they just added a bracket as a fail safe.

IPR screen is clean as a whistle.....HPOP screen in oil cooler had small tear.


any comments welcome....pic below:

Must have just added the bracket....looks like the original STC fitting to me. New one in...bracket back on....and pump installed. Now to the oil cooler.....

That used to be the "fix" when the STC exploded. They would replace it with another STC fitting and add that bracket.
