Magnuson-strut tower clearance

Like the title says will this supercharger fit under the gm strut towers brace. I know the new hatrtbeat will but I like this one. Anyone have one and does it clear.

Yes, it will fit. Had this combination installed for about 3,5 years.

worst case scenario, you can do like many of us LSA conversion guys do, and put small spacers under the brace to raise it up... I purchased some machined aluminum 3/8" spacers to place between the brace and the strut mounts. Most guys do 1/4" cut I wanted to make sure and only do it once.
Sounds like you don't have to worry though
