12 Roush stage 3 strut bar

Does anyone know if I can get a front strut bar for my 12 stage 3 WITH jlt carbon fiber intake. I bought the ford racing one and it doesn't fit. Been trying to locate one for a while and I'm new to the forum.

Thanks all!

Dave, are you asking if there is a strut bar that exists that will fit over your Roush blower?

If so, then there are a couple. The Roush blower is almost the same height as my magnuson (same with KB, Whipple, etc.). The Boss Strut bar should fit. That's what I have on mine and it fits, with about 1.5" to spare. The other bar that fits is the Steeda bar. I forget the name of it, but just google Steeda Strut bar or go to their site, or heck, call them.

Hope that helps.

Np man... here's a crappy iphone pic of my setup. Not sure how old this is, but for the purposes of showing the strut bar and how it fits, it works!

Hmm engine looks good love the blue but I can already tell that won't fit either. Here's mine you can see how big the intake is.

The 07-09 gt500kr strut bar fits.

I put a small piece of the fuzzy side of Velcro on the underside of it above the CAI because although it fits, the STB got hot enough to melt the carbon fiber dipped JLT CAI.
