A bracket includes a bracket body, a threaded insert, and a fastener. The bracket body defines a first opening positioned to align with a second opening in a cylinder head. The threaded insert is positioned in the first opening. The threaded insert includes an exterior surface threadably engaged with the first opening, an inner surface defining an aperture, and an end face. Rotation of the threaded insert in the first opening facilitates selective repositioning of the threaded insert in the first opening. The fastener is configured to be received in the aperture of the threaded insert. The aperture is configured to receive a tool for selective rotation of the threaded insert.

Mounting bracket

A piston cooling nozzle including a nylon body having a hub and a pair of integral legs extending from the hub and a tube for delivering coolant to a piston. The pair of legs are formed relative to the hub and the tube to ensure that when the body is mounted to an engine block, the legs engage a cylinder liner to thereby position the tube between a skirt of the piston and a connecting rod coupled to the piston.
