Here a pic of the kawahara engine brace:
I would recommend any of the hop-upped braces, because I had the stripping problem too. The Derlin Spurs don't help, because you will just strip those too. I went to the Traxxas engine mount screws, and the Skyline brace. I still strip, but now it's after about a gallon of fuel, and before it was after every 3rd tank or so..
