Strut Towers...Anyone?
Anyone running a strut tower brace on their Cobra with the stock intake?
The one I was looking at (Mac) only works with their cold air kit. Another one I found on ebay said it fit the Cobra intake but the car they showed it with had an aftermarket cold air setup again. Not looking to install a cold air kit as I like the look of the stock engine bay. I have a high flow drop in filter and thats good enough for me. (Please don't flame me for saying this!)
Anyone know of a strut tower brace that will work? Links?
Thanks!

Re: Strut Towers...Anyone?
Did you try Maximum Motorsports? I think they make one, and they also make one for a carb, so that may work also.laz2447 wrote:Anyone running a strut tower brace on their Cobra with the stock intake?

They looks nice, help handling a bit maybe, but I wouldn't want to drill the holes to mount one on a cobra.

looks good! like i said i need one to clear the stock intake though.Dantak wrote:I got one on mine but I don't know what the brand is. It was on there when I bought it.
i keep going back and forth about it though. might do the cai, and then i change my mind 5 mins later. how do you like yours? notice a good dif?
i think i was saying one thing and meaning another...i thought of that after i typed it...wasnt being specific enough!Dantak wrote:Not really sure what you mean. That is the stock intake. If you mean go over the top of it, I'm almost sure there isn't enough clearance between the intake and the hood for that.
i know alot of the brands say that their towers arent compatable with other cai's or factory tubes etc...
either way your right, and your picture did answer the question i asked...
what i should of said was does anyone have any pictures of a strut tower on a stock intake with the facotry airbox and intake tube!
