Default Fuel rail covers?

I have an SLP strut tower brace on my SS, I want to get Fuel rail covers. My question is will the FRC fit with the Strut tower brace?

i installed poly motor mounts and stb and fuel rail covers wouldn't fit anymore. I have an edelbrock stb. it might have been an illusion but it appeared that my motor sat a little higher after I replaced motor mounts tho..

Get rid of the garbage strut tower brace and they will fit. There is no proof a strut tower brace does anything for you and if it is its so minimal during cornering you would never notice it neither would it actually do anything positive for you.

do a coil relocation mod and get some nice polished valve covers, looks way better than a plastic engine cover...

I have a Hotchkis strut tower brace, and my FRCs fit just fine.

Best of luck to you, dude!
