in 71 they chainged becouse of the number of motormounts that were breaking. If you hit the throttle and pop the drivers side mount, the engine will lean over and lock the throttle or even open the throttle more. This was a big enough problem that there was a recall, and we all know how much the bean counters hate spending money on recalls.
With that being said, I wouldn't bother personally.
