I have a '90 GT with a mildly built 306. I'm looking for a strut tower brace that will fit over an Edlebrock Performer RPM-2 intake manifold (for a fuel injection motor). Just wanted you to know I'm noy running a 4 barrel carb set up. I recently purchased a Steeda strut tower brace that claimed it would "clear most aftermarket intakes". Unfortunately that was not the case, it didn't clear my upper intake. It was rubbing in 3 different spots, so hammering a little dent in the strut tower brace really wasn't an option. Is anyone running this manifold &/or have any ideas on what strut tower brace will fit?

I've only seen the steeda unit and it fit. Does maximum motorsports make one? I haven't looked for a brace in a long time.

I had to notch and reweld the one on my car when I had the edelbrock performer on mine. I am not sure what the brand was, maybe bbk? There is no way it will fit with the holly systemax, so it just sits in the corner.
