Default a STB that will fit??
I was happily using my UMI STB brace on my 98' T/A with my LS6 intake, but then......I did a motor swap and added a carb style intake set up..... Now my STB wont fit due to the bad *** looking intake/elbow

Has anyone on here ever found/hear of a strut tower brace that will fit while using a Vic Jr intake with elbow?? I've heard a 3point brace "might" work......just wondering if anyone on here has ever actually bolted one on, or knows of one that will fit!

Maybe a Hotchkis STB with a custom spacer bracket if the original does not fit?
