Strut Tower Brace for carbed motor?
I am interested in buying a strut tower brace however, I am not sure which one to buy due to having a carburetor, i know most are made for tpi setups. Wondering if anyone can toss me a part number or send me in the right direction. I have looked at hawks website and summits and their search engines have yielded me with boggled answers. Thanks.

That's an Edelbrock, what I'm using - but it specifies for A/C on pass side - if you have A/C and it's on driver side, you'll need to look further I guess.

The one for carbs should be the same as the one for TBI cars.

I too am using the above, but I was forced to wait until I swapped in a serp system which moves the compressor to the pass side. If you've eliminated the AC, go for it. Pic in my vbGarage (lower left), should you wish a peek.JamesC

This one from MAC will work. Can't tell you anything about it though, never used or seen one.
