I have a 1989 Firebird Formula, can I put a strut tower brace on my TBI engine?

I think Edelbrock is the only company that sells them for Carb/TBI. I got one on mine and I Love it.

I put one of the Jamex STB in my RS. It clears the air cleaner fine.

I have the Ground Control Strut Tower Brace (upper stress bar)
It clears my 14"x3" open element air cleaner.
It fits TBI or Carb Motors. $109.
I'm also using their Caster/Camber Adjusters.

Heres mine. I am really happy with the performance increase but it was put together kinda sloppy. Sloppy wleds and the powder coating isn't that smooth and debris in it.

ok thanks guys. I haven't even begun to work on my engine yet. Still working on the interior and the audio-system. I just bought my subs, but i have to get 2 more amps, 2 more 5 1/4 speakers, and 2 power cells for the subs.. next is the ramair hood, cold air induction, dual 3 inch exhaust, headers, lowering springs, new tinted windows (5 percent , and by that time i will be need new tires
