There are plenty of strut braces that fit in front of the plenum.

The stock strut bar clears just fine when you use the proper number of washers under the strut bar mounts.

Or, Stillen or Crawford, but washers are cheaper.

AAM spacer is 1/2" at the front so you can't assume that because the MD 5/16" clears it will work for the AAM.

Totally missed that he had AAM, lol. I think the ARC should clear too but havent actually tried it. I think the GReddy or the GT Spec strut bars should clear as well.
