Maybe reduce the twisting force which is applied to the chassis. Heat transfer would be minimal.
I was thinking it would be better for the twisting force part on the chassis. I analised my old chassis (and the current one that I'm using) and I found that the chassis bends directly under the engine. I guess the aluminum X bar radio support plus the one piece engine mount would really help stiffen the rear part of the chassis.
