DC Sports clears my LS motor with the fuel rail covers on. I would say it is about as high up as you could go with a strut tower bar and still clear.

looks like its time to get a greedy style intake insted of that weird cross over one. then youll have no trouble with strutbars.

the dc sport one did not clear my engine from the drivers side. still had about another 2 anda half inches to go. i loved the look of that brace too bad i sold it. i saw a good looking greddy one that i am waiting for now and hopefully it will fit better. kinda looks like its set higher and str8 accross instead of a incline. in the end thats what i needed.

God, everything in that bay looks mint. I'm not even a fan of LS swaps but this one is amazing, great choice of color too.
