Default Shear webbing on Ziroli Stearman?

I am framing up a 77" Ziroli Stearman. The upper wing is ready to sheet on the forward and mid sections, but it seems too easy to twist at this stage. The plans show no shear webbing between the spars, but would it help? or is it unnecessary weight? Will the sheeting and covering add enough stiffness without the webbing?
