What special bracket do you need to put a carb and intake on ford 302 with an auto trans?

You don't need a *special* bracket specifically for a carburetor and intake on a Ford 302 with an automatic transmission. The carburetor is attached directly to the intake manifold, and the intake manifold is bolted to the engine. There's no unique bracket involved in that connection.

However, you *might* need some brackets depending on your specific setup:

* Throttle Cable Bracket: You'll need a bracket to mount the throttle cable to the carburetor. This bracket is usually included with the carburetor or intake manifold, but sometimes needs to be sourced separately.

* Kickdown Linkage Bracket: For the automatic transmission, you need a kickdown linkage bracket that connects the transmission to the carburetor. This allows the transmission to signal the carburetor to downshift under heavy acceleration. The exact bracket will depend on the year and specific transmission.

* Distributor Bracket: This isn't directly related to the carb and intake, but it's important to note that the distributor might have its own bracket, though often it's integrated into the engine.

* Air Cleaner Bracket: This might require a separate bracket depending on the type of air cleaner assembly you are using.

In short, while there's no single "carb and intake bracket," several brackets might be necessary to complete the installation correctly. The specifics depend entirely on the year of your 302, the specific intake manifold, carburetor, and transmission you're using.
