Frame strengthening/gussets

It seems to me that I recall a fairly comprehensive article done on strengthening the Big Healey frame with various gussets in multiple locations. I have a friend who is at the stage in his restoration where he would like to add these. I have a number of photos of shock tower and motor mount gussets and I could probably dig up some photos of the area around the scuttle/gearbox tunnel as well, but if someone could point me to one source for all suggested enhancements it would sure be helpful.

Thanks to all.
