1. So I notice that there are two different export braces for Mustangs. I'd call one the regular brace and the other the Shelby brace. I noticed the Shelby brace has 4 evenly spaced holes where it bolts into the firewall and the regular brace also has 4 holes but just not evenly spaced.
Is one stronger or better than the other in this regard? I wouldn't think so but had to ask...
2. Are there export braces that are thicker material with deeper reinforcing bends in them than others? If so who makes them?
3. I have a couple of export braces (one chrome & one black) that came with a project car that I just got and when I laid them over each other to compare their dimensions I noticed that the chrome brace has a longer overall length on the arms that tie into the top of the shock towers than the black export brace. I'd really have to muscle the chrome brace into place to use it. However - the flimsy stock factory 2 piece braces fit just fine between the firewall mounting location and the top of the shock towers so it would seem that nothing is out of whack dimensionally.
