Ok guys, here is the prototype of the 3 point strut brace. I will build a jig off of this one. The production bars will be made of the same 1" diameter tubing with a .095 wall thickness. They will be fully welded, gusseted, and powder coated.

The j-speed bar is alluminum. I am interested in seeing what the finished
bar looks like, right now the tower and firewall mount points are very weak looking. The bar itself looks plenty strong but where it mounts could use some serious reinforcment. Props for the work.
