Motor Mount Bar Question

Hello,

what is this bar on top of the K member? Looks like it ties the motor mount bracket together? Is it necessary? I'm swapping an inline six for s Small Block 350. Didn't want it to interfere with the oil pan.

It only came on the inline 6 trucks, can't remember what the purpose was. Mine was originally an inline 6 that I swapped a 350 into. I left it on for no particular reason. It doesn't interfere with anything, but you can remove it.

Cool, Thanks. I'm replacing the motor mounts, so might just take it off...If anything to clean up under there too.

If it comes off, might make a nice grab bar on a future project.
