the bold that holds the starter in the first pic was like that when i went under the car so whoever changed it or messed with it forgot to tighten it back up. and bothe terminal leads broke off as u can see. but they broke when i went to remove the cables.

i think they are a standard option on all 350's but extra support cant hurt esp if you going high compression
