Bob:

This was something that was done on the original Daytona Coupes. When Shelby decided to do the 289 continuation cars, specifically the FIA variants it was included. It adds a lot of triangulation in several planes and will prevent twisting and "Porpising" or longitudinal flexing. All the suspension pickup points would need to be located and plumbed for accuracy, since once this is done there will not be ANY flexing of the chassis.
