Re: Strut Tower Brace for a strange set up
i would remove the side snorkle completly the tpi airbox will feed more air then u need alone
this will clean up the engine bay and give u a lil more room to work with on the driver side

Re: Strut Tower Brace for a strange set up
I dont know I like having the additional snorkel, I've even considered adding one on the passenger side.

Re: Strut Tower Brace for a strange set up
not the best pics. i originally made it for tpi, but when i switched to carb, i cut it apart. i should re-make it,...kinda ugly, lol. its made from some angle, some adjustable rods from a go-cart steering, some shock extensions, and a pre-bent bar that came out of the wifes mini-van rear seat, lol. anyway, might give you some ideas?

I had to make my own also, probably the best advice.
