I can't really speak for the welding of the center section. I can see it's benifits though.

For the torque boxes: You can go to eBay and search for 'torque box reinforcments' and you should get some results. Also, someone on Stangnet makes their own. You will need to weld up your boxes or have the reinforcments installed so that you don't destroy your rear end after consistantly hard launches at the track.

I believe that it is Rick91GT who makes the reinforcements. Give him a PM
