The FRPP Bullitt STB will clear the intake cover. Have one on my car.

The GT500 STB will not clear the hood, the Bullitt brace which happens to be the same as the FRPP V6 brace clears the manifold and the hood with no problem.

Your 08 (if you still use the stock hood) has the hood liner with the twin grooves for the Bullitt stb as well so it shouldn't rub.

Not sure which FRPP cai you have but if you are running the FRPP Bullitt cai the same hood liner has the indents to seal that up so only outside air comes into it.

Forgot to subscribe to this thread. Thank you for the info I think I will try to get one. I bought a JLT 110 mm intake now and am getting rid of the ford racing one.. I heard the 5.0 brace is the same thing as the bullitt brace.. I will look into too.

Thanks again
