Yeah, its stock. I'm not sure whether its stock on newer cars, but some people might take them off for intake clearance. Mine is off til I get one that clears my intake.

I believe it was standard on the 94-98 convertibles only to shore up structural support with the absence of the roof structure. There is also an X-brace located below the engine as well.

I found out that 95 GTs' have both the strut tower brace and g-load brace stock straight from the factory. Mine does have both. Steeda claims that Ford started doing this after they used them on earlier stangs that they modified.

All 94-95 GT's came with the strut tower brace.
