3S-GTE block girdle

Here's a pretty interesting idea that I've been following for some time on the MR2OC board...

Be cool if they make a girdle like that for the vq35, the vq35hr one is wayyyy beefier looking than the vq35de

Hmmmmm... not bad. What are the odds you're going to do that?

It's only $500, and the only thing different I have to do (since I've already modded my oil pan for the ARP mains) is buy a new set of longer main studs to accommodate the steel plate. It eliminates block flex and premature internal failure... and at the HP levels I'm going to be running, I don't see a reason not to do it.
