Hotchkis STRUT BAR

Bought it to go on our 88 camaro, but put a stealth ram on and now it not clear the new intake .

Its nice.
It is used, but very nice shape.

will it clear TPI?

if its a Hotchkiss, then yes.

Scott, is it triangulated (I.e. it has braces that go between the strut bar and the cowl?)

scott in wa. · Posted: Tue Mar 06, 2007 12:56 pm Post subject: no

It goes strait across from strut to strut only.
Its red powder coated I think.

Yes it will clear a normal tpi setup.
I could have bent it up to use it but didn't want to .

It's the one schultzy has so it fits firebird (does rub on the hood blanket). Not triagulated.

ohh... it's red. Ewwwww

ohh well, it could be painted blue or black.

::runs out of room to avoid hail of fire::

I would realy like it but I have spent WAY too much on my cars recently...

are you going to be at the dyno day in Sequim?

lol

Mine rubbed a little on the hood insulation. Not sure if I could have positioned it a bit better on the strut tower to avoid that. One of my earlier mods.

RED is my FAVORITE color in the whole wide world. I almost bought a red 90 RS camaro but instead opted for the fresh engine black one. and I almost painted it red over the summer but i couldn't say no to rally stripes...just too badass Razz
