Question Tunnel Brace with Headers?

Anyone have any pics of their aftermarket tunnel brace mounted with headers? Need to get one but not sure what will fit. Here is a pic of mine with the clearance I have. Thanks

It looks like Spohn might have one that will fit. Hopefully some here will have pics/suggestions. Thanks for the info and please post some pics when you can

I am going to have to get in on pavement and see how low it is. It does look low in the pics. I might have to get the Spohn Bolt In Driveshaft Safety Loop so it will mount. Would like to see mounted pics of one of these if anyone has any. Thanks

Hello
I noticed you are looking into a tunnel brace. And I just wanted to leave you know that UMI Performance offers a tunnel braced DS loop. Below is a link to show you what I am talking about.

http://www.umiperformance.com/catalo...kmgvf38es6e014

If you have any other questions feel free to ask.
Thanks
Brad

Well, i bought the Spohn tunnel brace with the bolt on loop. tried for 2 hours to get that damn loop over the drive shaft but couldn't. It is suppose to slide on over the shaft but will not. Regretting getting this now. Wish i would have tried the UMI tunnel brace now.
