      That is the bracket for the heat shield, for the motor mount on the exhaust side.

              Doesn't it get sanwitched between the motor mount and the subframe, It also has a heat shield on the exhaust side, to protect the motor mount. I left em' off when I did eurethane motor mounts....

                          Leaving the heat shield off, especially with urethane motor mounts isn't a good idea. The heat from the exhaust can melt the mounts.
                          The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

                              Hmm... Should I put that on?

                              I have the e30 m50 motor mounts from AKGmotorsports, and my headers are heat wrapped...

                                      Does it fit with the AKG motor mounts for the m50 swap? Anybody know?
