Question for those people with a ZL1 convertible

I haven't seen under the hood of a ZL1 drop top so I was curious if they come with a strut tower brace like the regular SS convertibles. If so I am curious if it is modified to fit over the supercharger lid?

They had a ZL1 convertible at Camaro Fest and it didn't have a strut tower brace. I don't think the factory brace used on the other convertibles will clear the supercharger and hood.

Makes you wonder why GM didn't engineer one if they felt it was needed on the less powerful SS verts???

No, not from tower to tower. We have some small black brackes that go from
tower to the center of the firewall.
