[DeTomaso] chassis stiffeners - opinions

[Sean Korb]

I haven't tried it myself, but I like the one that's not available.  Goran
Malmberg built a simple "X" that spans the original frame brace (intact) to
the B pillar (pics on his site and on hooniverse)

He did a lot of work with a balsa-wood mock-up that showed this simple
system increases chassis stiffness dramatically.
