Cool I bet that would help alot, is it just as strong, or stronger?

I guess thats directed at me? That is 1/2" plate steel welded in. So I would say yes its stronger then factory. I know I took the headers off the car with the motor still bolted to the mounts. But they were 10 piece headers too....lol
I know the spark plugs are easy to get out.

1/2 plate is way overkill. 1/4 inch would work just fine.

Bud: That is sweet. I wish I had done that with mine.

Thanks. It was done like that when I bought the car. There is a few extra things that have been redone for strength. I'm guessing that old car did some big wheelies in its day. Brings that song "Blue Skies" to mind.... lol

I took the engine out to detail the engine compartment on my 68 Shelby GT500. With the engine compartment stripped, you can see the extra welds fairly easy..
