Can seem to find any good information on this except it didnt appear anyone has done this.

Has anyone been able to find and install a strut tower brace over their whipple supercharger?

I found the Kenny Brown Heavy-Duty Strut Tower Brace that they claim fits over the kenne bell. Anyone tried this one?

Kenny Brown has 2 different ST braces for the Cobra, 1 for the eaton and 1 for the KB... The 1 for the eaton will not work with the KB...I found that out the hard way...

k ill give MM a call this morning but its looking pretty grim, with so many KB's and whipples out there you would think someone would make one.

was hoping the KB Kenny Brown one would work but cant find anyone who has ever installed it *sigh*.

gave spoke with MM, no such luck, they dont have one or know of one that would fit.

The primary problem is the whipple and KB, relocate the inlet/throttle body tube
which gets in the way of the cross member (strut to firewall) on the passenger side.

bummer.

your right kenny brown does not fit, but starting this week they are making new braces that DO fit the whipple and kb. Just ordered one for the start of the production run.

you have to ask for the one they are building for the whipple/kb otherwise you will get the standard one that does not fit.
