USCT Inner Fender Shock Tower Brace Kit - Fact or Fiction?

The shock towers on my '68 Barracuda were only attached to the inner fenderwells with a few spot welds at the very top. Several of them were starting to tear through the sheet metal of the inner fender.

I welded them solidly to the inner fenderwell, and then installed my USCT bracing. I have the old style ones with round tubing.

I welded in the front frame rail brace in too. I fab'd up a Monte Carlo brace, and that is when the last remnants of cowl shake disappeared.
Wow, what's cowl shaking, I've never experienced that?
