The firewall has little structural value, it's pretty soft, so I'd imagine taking the center bar out would negate all positive effects of the strut tower brace.
Should I cut my strut tower brace?
When I got my 88 LX it had a three point strut tower brace on it, I have put a Cobra intake on it, with a pretty pig phenolic spacer (I think its around an inch). Now my STB wont fit! I was thinking I could just bend it to fit, but the hood is stock so it wont fit. I actually had to get rubber washers and put them on the hood hinges to raise it so the intake wont dent my hood.
So I was thinking I could just cut the arms that attach to the firewall off and just have a two point STB.
Is this a good idea and will it still improve handling?
