Default Engine brace

I had a problem with the engine moving about to much on my RST, i have heard bad reports about uprated engine mounts so i got AVA to make up an engine brace to steady the engine, it is hand made out of stainless steel, i have seen a couple of others but not alot of them, what do you recon of the idea.
