Got some good news, I think.

These are the latest pics Gary got for me...



It's extremely tight but the TPS looks as though it might just clear the brace. I'm just not sure if the Airram comes further forward at all. If it doesn't, I know some of you guys have got (or are getting) phenolic spacers & that should give ample clearance between the IM & the brace.

Can I please get the opinions of those people with Airrams? Will this work?

Well I'll be damned.

Looks like that one will work. The airram sits back further then the stock IM, so that SHOULD work.

Mine will soon be done this week. I'll show some pics.

Bad news is that I won't be able to fabricate any more for around a month or two untill more supplies and materials come in.

mmm... I was just thinking about that and i got a problem with that the way the airam is we dont have that much clerance on the back sife of it anyway.. do you have the yaya engine mounts?? in the frount and rear of the engine. the resion i ask is if you put that spacer on with the oem engine mounts wont it slam into the firewall??? its just a thought... because i remember your post and i pop my hood and was look at that...just dont want anyone to run into problems fing02.gif

The phenolic spacers are only about 1/4 inch thick at the VERY most, so no, it won't cause any issues.

nice looking strut bar... I love the mounts, very nicely machined. I would love a price on that AND just for giggles, the GT Radiator
