Mid plate vs. no midplate

I run a Front plate and solid steel motor mounts in my SS/AS Mustang and it makes over 900HP, I have not seen any problems as of late.

The use of a midplate is a plus and if the rules allows it, use it.

It stiffens the chassis and also limits the torsional twist and stresses on both the engine block and transmission.

In many cars, it improves the 60' numbers,

If you have to use a diaper, it makes the installation and removal easier.
It makes engine removal easier too.
