any strut bar will clear a ZE intake, I have the straight neck on my MX-3 ZE and the Cork Sport one clears with lots of room, it is the ZE with a DE manifold that is close.

And it's also close with the Millennia IM.

I am still trying to design some things. Little more difficult than I thought. Bear with me I will get something figured out. I will then work on a rear strut bar. I am trying guys...Im in the middle of the B6T swap too.

not much to figure out man have it bow behind the manifold wrapping around the back curved side of it.....

Well....TEAL93 made a little proototype but it wasn't strong enough. So he is going round 2 on it. As soon as he gets it done I am gonna do the middle part and then once we get it perfect they will be for sale. I gotta figure out how much materials will be and all, too. As soon as I have an idea I will post a price range.

I'm all good for the rear one as well, as I dont have one now.

this is how to do it. looking from over top of the engine bay the XX are the enine and the little drawing is the strut bar NOT going over top but bowed towards the firewall.

I know that it isn't hard...I just haven't had a ton of time to work on it. I am trying to finish up my swap and all and Cory is working on the prototype.

do you at least know if you will do a single piece bar or will it be multiple pieces?
