No it will not. You either need the stock Cobra strut bar or an aftermarket bar. Most aftermarket bars will clear the cobra intake.

What other intakes in the same range will fit under it, if any?

What cobra intake is everyone running... the 94-95 or the 87-93, and is there a difference in the 87-93 ones over the years?

the 87-93 does not have the elbow on the end, you either have to buy one or convert to the fox set up. I have the 94-95 Intake and dont run any brace at all.

I just purchased a 87-93 Cobra intake. I still need an elbow. If anyone happens to have one sitting around, PM me.

I have a vert, so found a brace almost necessary. Bought the Ford from Summit, got in within 48 hours, fits and looks great.
