C2 did '66 L72 use factory engine lift brackets?

[Steven S.]

I've reviewed my literature and I didn't see mention of the engine lift brackets on the '66 L72. If not, when did these first make an appearance on the Corvette BB?
Thank you,
Steve

Engine lift brackets first appeared on Corvette engines for the 1968 model year. They may have been used for other Chevrolet engines prior to that, though.

1967 Chevrolet passenger car assembly plant engine dress line conveyor hooks on the left, 1968 model year hooks on the right (after engines got lift brackets).
