Question SLP STB w/ FRC's on LS1???

I was wondering if anybody was using an SLP Strut Tower brace while having a set of fuel rail covers on their LS1. Ive heard that the FRC's wont fit with an SLP STB b/c it sits too low. Ive heard that a BMR STB works better b/c it sits a little higher. Any input would be helpful. Thanks guys.

They will fit under both STB's. The problem is when the engine moves the FRC's rub up on the STB and can crack the paint in that area. If the paint is flexable it will only rub off where its hitting and you won't be able to see that without removing the STB.

The BMR sits slightly higher, but I've still seen it rub.
