Default engine and trans stabilizer bars??

i dont know if thats what they are called but the bars under the oil pan that connect the engine and trans by the flywheel cover.

is it safe to only run 1 bolt on the rear one?? i have it bolted to teh trans and to the engine but the one bolt for the engine stripped the block.

i have ran without those on most of my motors... seen many people making good power not run them...

me personally? i have a pimp *** ITR one that cast aluminum and one piece... balla!.... [it was free :P] but if i didnt have one, i wouldnt run one at all...its just a bitch to work around and have to remove when needed...
