I've had the Granatelli single brace for years now and as mentioned before, if you move the spacers on the plenum around per the instructions, you get about 1/8" to 1/4" clearance on the plenum cover.

hey Granatelli, will your $99.00 brace fit through the plenum of a Saleen?

Sorry ,but the $99.00 one will not clear the original Ford plenum cover unless you use some kind of spacers. I have that particular brace and I had to use spacers under it and still it messed up my plenum. The only way is if Granatelli re-designed the brace since I purchashed mine.Which could be,I just know mine doesn't. Maybe Granatelli re-designed it to fit.
