To improve the chassis's torsional rigidity two diagonal braces need to be fitted from the firewall to the top outer rails.  These will be added later once the position of the engine and accessories has been finalised.  I have also added  bracing from the firewall down to the lower outer rails, next to the engine mounts.  In my opinion this adds torsional strength to the engine bay.
