will a strut tower brace fit when you have a heat spacer?????

im not sure but measure the vertical distance between your upper plenum and the closest part of your strut tower brace, if this is really close or less than the thickness of your spacer it wont fit, but i bet theres some way to modify your brace on the sides and back to let it up a little higher, a shop that does anykind of steel tube framing work would be able to do it but it probably wouldnt be worth the hassle just to get a spacer in there
