Installed the Ridetech coilover system on my 1967 Mustang, and of course the OEM-style strut brace no longer works with the bolt pattern of the coilover setup. I remember seeing somewhere that the OEM brace could be re-drilled to work, but I'm not seeing how that is possible.

Does anyone have a recommendation for brace that will work without having to modify it to the moon? I like the Global West setup (http://www.globalwest.net/mustang-4-bar-tubular-export-brace-1967-1968-1969-1970-global-west-suspension.html), but it bugs me to have to spend $350 and either drill new holes or not have it work.
