It is there to drive Corvette owners crazy until they have to ask the question. The part is common with the F body (Trans Am, Camaro) cars. They use the mount, we don't.

Crazy, for sure. I was thinking that maybe I was missing something. So, it is of some use in the Camaro and the Firebird. Okay, cool. Thanks.

Does anyone know what this flange/ bracket is for? It is bolted to the two rear intake manifold bolts?
