[V8] What's this plug for? (Dave Saad)

[Seamus O'Carey]

I haven't really had much chance to play with it yet, but so far the car
still just feels heavy.  I think that it has a lot to do with (other than
its weight) the fact that it's an automatic and the suspension is probably
original needs to be replaced.

Plus I'm still relatively certain that I have at least one bad motor mount,
so I'm afraid I'm going to break something if I step on the gas too hard.
