Starter motor bracket?

Hi, I was just wondering is the starter motor bracket necessary? I have a new starter but it's a smaller one compared to the fat starter so the bracket does not fit. It fits the car fine though.

 

Thanks Craig.

You can leave it off, you won't notice any difference.

Had a smaller one on mine for a while, no problems to date
