There is rubbing under the strut bar. Its hard to see until you take the bar off. the engine moves inside the bay (obviously) and will hit the strut bar. Same thing with the intake tube. If you raise the strut bar it will rub the hood. Gotta find the happy medium where you are rubbing both only a little.

well my thought's were with your's hahaha.. but he said you don't really feel much difference between the two because they both use the same pressure plate.. just one grabs quicker than the other..

still the cheapest i found was 925 shipped...

then i can either do the swap myself, or just have frank do it for 350. and 350 seems like an awefully low number for the work so i dont mind paying that hahaha.. plus it helps frank

This JUST IN: this dude came into Function:TUNED today for a tune. Initially, he had an appointment with AAM, but AAM canceled on him last minute. Since when does AAM cancel on opportunities to make money? He later traveled to Function to get the job done.
