The rear one will fit, however, the front may not. I have tried to test fit several stut tower bars and none clear. The tightest areas are over the snout of the supercharger, as well as over the air intake area. If you have something like the chicane RIPP kit it will be almost impossible to fit something. I would call Kenny Brown and see. The 351 swap brace from Steeda clears everything really well, but doesnt clear the hood in multiple areas.

If anything works, please post. I am not a big fan of the Kenny Brown one because it mounts beneath the strut tower caster camber plate area instead of actually bolting to the towers themselves.

Acheron,

I think snow performance now has a couple of products that will fit S/C Saleens.
If they don't then the one I saw on a car was re-worked. It looked clean and unchanged to me.

I asked Steeda about their '03 Cobra brace. They said it will not fit an M90 Saleen because the blower snout sits slightly higher than the Cobra snout.

I talked with MM and they said that nothing will fit without modifications. I will e-mail Snow and see what they say.

Damn. I thought for sure that engine strut tower brace I saw was a Snow Performance piece because it was anondized blue. I'll have to ask the guy who owns the car what it is and let you know. I know his car is an 02 S281 S/C.
