It's a big metal disc that is mounted to the front of the water pump pulley. It was put there t reduce vibration from the AC compressor. The motor will spin up a little faster with this chunk of rotating mass removed and it probably won't hurt anything. Just make sure to use shorter bolts for your water pump pulley.

Its a big disc sitting on the water pump, put in because of the compressor redesign prior to 88. Earlier years do not have it.
remove it, its not doing you any good being there, it should free about 10hp up
