Did it come on '74 small blocks? My car is modified and there is none. I will be installing a stereo, do I need it, or can I use special plug wires to suppress the noise?

It came on all cars with an optional factory radio, regardless of engine displacement. No factory radio, no shielding.

Thanks Rich. I won't even be listening to FM, Sirrius Sattelite radio or CDs only, or maybe Bluetooth from my phone. I hate FM radio and all the commercials!
