What is it? Bunch o wires. On some kind of mounting plate, but not mounted anywhere. Just kinda tangled in between hoses and wires.
Should this be mounted somewhere in particular? I assume it's not stock... related to the electronic ignition?

They are fuses - one is for heated rear windows may be. _________________ The glory never gets old, just need new paint.

Thank you. I found this pic from user "70 140" of a stock 1971 engine that has these fuses mounted above the coil. Glad to see I just need to detangle and mount these... instead of trying to figure out how another non-stock part is supposed to fit in this puzzle!
