Here's how to do it:

John, I can't tell from your pic, are the clevises attached to a ring that attaches to the three strut studs, or are the clevises welded straight to the strut towers?

The clevis's are welded to the strut tower and a plate on the firewall.  It was all custom and is not available as a bolt-in.  In general, bolt-in chassis reinforcement doesn't work that well.

 

Lots of other custom work in the pic:

Radiator mount

Radiator

Cooling system routing

Cooling system overflow

Intake manifold

Throttle body

CAI

Brake MC bracket

Yes, the booster is deleted using the bracket and Tilton balance bar I used to make and sell.  It allows mounting of two master cylinders, one for the front system and one for the rear system.  That, in conjunction with the balance bar and an adjustable prop valve for the rear system let me dial in the brake balance.  Brake pedal pressure was perfect (for me).
