Will A Ss Ram Air Box Work With A Strut Tower Brace

I have a 94 camaro z28. With a 2 point rk sport strut tower brace. I just bought a ss fiberglass hood. Could I use a ram air box with the brace. Will it work or does the strut tower brace get in the way?? Anybody ever ran a ss ram air box with a strut tower brace. Becuase the brace looks like it would be directly in the way

the brace you are referring too will probably be in the way
there is somebody who makes a stb for a ss (or ss hood and box vehicle)
if i remember who it is, then i'll let you know

The Hotchkis one is one of the only ones I know of that will allow the use of the stock SS box. I put the Hotchkis one on the wife's vert and it clears just right. It has to be a brace that drops back to the cowl then comes back forward to the strut towers.
