I dont believe youd be able to "add" an effective center brace that would change the tanks current abilities as it would never be as strong as a solid top tank or much stronger than before the extra bracing. As for 1/2", you should be able to go to about 21-22" safely and having the 4 3/4" euro style brace does help.
