Has anyone fitted a yr. 2000 Stillen FSTB on a '97? Are the end braces compatible in the hole size for strut and bolt circle?

 

wont fit. 5th gen bars are elevated in the middle, while the 4th gen are flat. the hood wont close. i've tried

 

thats true 5th gen strut bars are raised to fit over their intake manifold. The bar will bolt on just fine just dont try to close the hood it will screw it up. But now that i think of it the damage you put on the hood will sorta look like a cowl induct hood...maybe this is the start of something....

 

Thanks for your quick feedback guys eventhough it wasn't the answer I was hoping for.
