Cervini concept hood and strut braces

I'm just about ready to pull the trigger on ordering this hood for my 06 GT. I have a Strange STB and I'm wondering if this hood will accommodate this or other braces.

In my conversation with the folks at Cervini, they were not definitive in answering this question, so I'm wondering if those of you in the know can give me (and my bodyshop) a better sense of what to expect. I know that the rise is a 1/4 inch taller than stock, so I'm assuming that there shouldn't be a problem. Of course, if there is a fitment issue, I can always remove the STB, but my preference is to keep it on!

I have the RK Sport ram air hood which has air ducting on the bottom and this makes the bottom of the hood closer to the engine than a stock hood. I have the BMR brace and it fits , in fact the brace is raised by a couple of washers to clear my supercharger. So my guess is that you'll probably be OK ...

They told me it wouldnt even clear my Saleen supercharger. So I'd guess not.
