Very nice. How did you get the ARC bar to fit? Also, what core brace is that?

i just bolted the bar in, i was told they "dont" fit but it fit
that's the ASM core support bar.
lets just say it wasn't easy to find all of the ARC parts ha.

^Very nice, tkuntz. I'm surprised the ARC strut bar fits on HR as well. Good job.

thx big guy, i have been seeing alot of post in seperate threads/forums about how limited the HR is for aftermarket strut bars... makes me wonder why this ARC one fits when alot of other guys can't use it or any other brands.

From what I understand, you can use any DE STB. You have to put washers under the bar to raise it up to fit over the manifold.

yea i was concerned about having to do that also once i started reading into things more, but once i got it i bolted it on and there's no rubbing between the bar and the engine cover so i opted out of the washer/spacer concept. So it's currently bolted flush without any spacer design.

sure thing big guy, im going to tally up all the counts and sizes and then i will share the list, this is also going to include the strut tower, core support bar, and some other nuts i can see here and there that i think might stand out if they aren't matched up.

There is already a list posted on here. I bought zinc plated bolts and nuts from Ace Hardware.

Here is it.
