Hood struts - Lowered a little in back. But wait, I've corrected most.

BUT I HAVE A QUESTION FOR YOU GUYS. I have a Wipple Supercharger in my 08 GT rag top. I'm installing the Ford Racing suspension kit for this car and I am trying to find a Strut Tower Brace that will work with a stock hood and Whippe Supercharger. Surely someone knows???

Do a search on SVTP forum. I remember seeing a thread about this.
