Has anybody braced there jet pump to the engine ?? Maybe from the bellhousing area to the upper most bolts on the bowl mounting flange ?? I was woundering if the floor moves at high speed and high HP .

I think most people usually braced the pump from the stringers on either side of the pump.

Yes, the pump brace goes to the rails.
The purpose is to make the engine & pump more solid as a unit assembly.
I would guess that there is quite a bit of torque applied to the pump under accelateration, and it will help hold the intake/pump in the hull.
