Hey guys, I went to install my MM STB today. It's the KB And Whipple version, I bought so it would fit on my JLT carbon fiber intake and stock eaton. It fits the car itself well and clears the intake but I can't get my hood to shut with it. Just wondering if any of you guys have had this issue. I emailed MM so Ill see what they say this week. I'm glad I just did a test fit and didn't drill any holes yet.

No.
Mine is about four years old. Fits fine over my Gen 1 2.3 Whipple and under the stock hood with the insulator matt.
If your STB is brand new maybe they have altered the design. Or maybe there is an installation error.

No reply as of yet. They must have changed the design or something. I laid the brace on the car exactly where it will be when installed. Maybe it was a manufacturing flaw or something.
