pros and cons of having struts on your front and rear shock towers? does it clutter the engine bay too much? does it help fox bodies all the much etc

Oh, man... no worries...:) Take a look at the pic below. It'll tell ya what you wanna know. I do not have the rear shock tower brace in my '06 because I have an aftermarket panhard bar brace and panhard bar. These pieces keep the lateral (side to side) movement to a dull roar when I am cornering or under hard acceleration... like snapping the clutch at 4 grand, shifting like a maniac or stuff like that.

Check out StangSuspension.com or talk to Emilio for panhard bar brace and panhard bars... either will definitely hook you up.
