Default Chassis Bracing?

Well I sold my 89 Foxbody to get my 95 LT1/M6. Some of the best mods I did to the Mustang were Maximum Motorsports bracing. The Vette is a much better platform, but it could use a stiffer chassis also. What bracing is still on the market for these cars? What are the most recommended braces and what difference did they make? Thanks!

Doug Rippie Makes a Roll/Bar chassis stiffener.. DRM is world class and great customer service.
There are roof bars that die the roof together when targa is off.
I believe they have a undercarriage x brace similar to what convertibles get to stiffen the car.
And a camber brace up front that ties the upper a arms together..

Vette2Vette has one that has been pretty well reviewed. It is the one I am considering.
