My buddy has a 1973 GTX, 440 auto NON AC car. Car is mostly original. Even has original paint. Question, there is a bracket bolted onto the front of the valley pan just in front of the carb. Looks like and engine pull bracket but we all know these motors were installed from underneath. Can anyone identify what this bracket is for?
