Strut and caster/camber plate interference with hood
FYI - Purchased the founders caster/camber plates which are thicker then the UMI caster/camber platers, then I purchased the umi struct brace and found that combination has minor interference with the stock hood. Looks like it can be easily fixed.

Re: Strut and caster/camber plate interference with hood
are you able to thread both hiem joints in all the way, and move the plates down to gain the clearance? there is only a 1/16" difference in the founders and UMI plates. (5/16 vs 1/4) Or will this cause interference with the plenum?
