Hi Everyone,
I wanted to ask your opinion of XV Engineering and their products. I want to learn more about their Engine Bay Brace. It basically appears that it ties the front end together to avoid twisting during acceleration. The design looks like a triangle connecting the sheet metal above the upper control arms to the firewall. I've seen similar designs the mustang guys use and also in other late model performance cars. Dose this product work or is it a waste of money? Some might not like the look of it being visible and restricting some access to the engine compartment while others might like the restomod appearance? I've also done a little research on the company and it looks like they have had some issues in the distant past.
I look at US Car Tool and they have a different approach to reduce body twist. What do you think...
