Strut Brace for carbed engine
Hey everyone, I'm looking for a strut tower brace to fit a carbed 350 with A/C on the driver side. I really just want a single bar (don't need the part that goes to the firewall). I have included a decent set of pictures to show you what I'm dealing with. It has a 14"air cleaner, so it will have to be bent an inch and a half or 2 towards the front of the car. It looks like it will go over the A/C brace, over that heater hose, and under the A/C low side line that's on the passenger side.
If you know anyone in south east kansas area who can do this, let me know. or if you can make one and ship it for a decent price.

I believe the edelbrock brace would work. I had one on my carbed motor, but no ac. Looking at yours, it SHOULD clear the ac hoses and it would be close. Take a look at this page, its mine with a clear shot of the brace.
