    Agent 47 makes the double barrel strut tower bar that will fit the plenum cover or supercharger. A47 Double Barrel

    Ford's Bullitt STB (same as the V6) will work.

    That's interesting to know, and it's the same as the v-6 brace?? I assume that's it in the picture?

    I have the Ford Racing strut tower brace.
    It fits and works great...

    I tried the Ford Racing brace that came with the FRPP kit but it didn't look like it was going to fit.

    Worst case scenario if you get one and it doesn't fit you can add a washer or too to space it.

    I, too, had the FRPP brace, and it did not fit over the plenum cover. I took the cover off but it always irked me that I paid extra for something that I couldn't enjoy. I bought the Bullitt one (pictured above) and it fits great, about 3/4" of clearance. It is the same as the FRPP V6 brace, only powdercoated silver, as far as I can tell.
