Re: What is this bracket for?
I agree, if you are running an automatic, it can be removed, that frame had a manual trans at one time, the auto frames never had that bracket installed.

Re: What is this bracket for?
You would definately need that bracket for a clutch setup unless you converted to hydraulic.
