Default GC Camber/Caster Plate (Top Mount) Stress bar

Ground Control mention an "integral stress bar" that can be added to their Camber/Caster Plates (Top Mount).

http://www.ground-control-store.com/.../II=646/CA=219

Two questions:

a) Anyone using the GC "stress bar"? I assume it's a strut brace. (Couldn't find any pics or further info on GC site).

b) Can other brands of strut brace be used with these plates, or are they designed so only the GC will fit?

I have the Ground Control caster plates, and I have a Racing Dynamics strut bar.

Thanks -- is yours the top mount or bottom mount style?

By integral, they are referring to how it mounts. If you run the top mount castor plates, you cannot use an aftermarket stress bar because the top mount plate covers the bolts. They basically put a bar from plate to plate. I don't remember how exactly they mount it but I've seen photos.

This is not my motor, but the bar looks like this one.
