question about GMPP strut bar & catch can

I have the Elite Engineering Catch can, and today I bought the GM strut bar (I had $100 GM credit for parts...)

Got it home and popped the hood of the 1LE and saw that my catch can may be in the way. Can anyone confirm whether we can run a catch can (in its intended location, anyway) with the strut bar??

Got it in pretty easy. Just had to move the catch can a bit...

Thanks again

I'm looking for some similar help... I already had the the GM strut tower brace and an E2 catch can I had fabbed a bracket for at the front of the car (beside the OE air intake). I had to remove it when I installed the GM CAI (it requires more space).

Does Elite have something similar to the bracket used by Mishimoto as well? I'm not seeing it on their website. Any other suggestions are welcome.
Thanks!

I'm pretty sure that my mishimoto unit in the 2016 mounts in the same spot as the e2 unit in my 1LE
