Car came in pieces when I got it so I’m not sure where the other end of this cable attaches to on my 73. It’s right up there under the motor mount.

To the side of the block. It's a ground. Mine is bolted to a boss coming off the engine side.

With your headers you may want to relocate the end that attaches at the starter brace.
I found a bolt by the fuel pump that worked.
