Could be tons of factors. I'd probably try bending that A/C line out of the way. Looks like you're only a 1/2" off. Otherwise use some washers to lift it up. Make sure it clears your hood though! lol. Never seen that design from KB before.

I was going to make one to fit the HSR, but with some extra bracing on the subframes, I don't seem to need it.

you should still make one paul, it will help control the alightment, even though the chassis is stiff as it is.

How much room do you have between the plenum and the hood?

alright, just went out and was able to bend the ac line over to the left so the stb would clear.

fits just fine now and the hood clears just fine.
