What its purpose is, I have no real idea. Possibly as some sort of protection for the wiring harness in the event of a belt shredding/breaking?

Well, it was a helluva guess.

That was my thought too... to protect against a belt attack.

... is it only on 88s though? I don't think my 87 has it, and I'm the original "tinkerer" on that car.

Ah, ok... it either has it then, or I removed it and forgot about it! Haha...

Thanks!
