Default Heat Shields
Merry Christmas All!!

these two chrome pieces were in a box in the back of the car. The look like heat shields, but I can’t find a photo on the internet with these in the engine compartment. Can anyone tell me what they are and where they go? Pictures? I’m trying to return this car to factory condition. It’s a 1972 with a 350ci & automatic transmission.
Many Thanks!!!
