Umm, yeah, it *will* help stiffen up the frame. I assume that it's welded in?

It would be nice to know what year car you are talking about. Really you don't give enough info for any meaningful answer.

When oval track racers talk about tightening a car up, they are referring to understeer. Is this what you mean?
