Default What strut bars clear the APS plenum?

So for those of you that has an APS plenum, I'm wondering what brand strut bars would clear the APS plenum besides the APS Toughboy strut brace. Help appreciated, thanks.

Crawford clears it. I like the aps, it looks better.

Only 3 fit tall plenums at this point:

1. APS
2. Crawford
3. Stillen

...and if you have a G, the VRT should work as well.

APS makes a Strut bar that should work fine. I beleive, like the Crawford, it goes to the front of the Plenum

Thanks for the inputs. Anybody ever heard of Aerosync carbon fiber strut? They say that it offers additional 10mm of additional space over stock strut which will clear most plenum spacers. I wonder if it will clear aps plenum.

^ I highly doubt it. The APS Plenum (which I also have) is probably the tallest plenum out there, which means it will definitely be taller than any spacer available. Even if you put spacers on the strutbar to clear the plenum, the big problem is the hood clearance which is not much to begin with.
