GM strut tower brace will it fit if i had a roots supercharger??

I tried to search any posts about the GM strut tower brace fitting a standard ss 1LE (not a ZLE) but I really couldn't find answer or posting about if I get a GM strut tower brace and then decide to add a roots type supercharger later, such as the eidlebrock or whipple does anyone know or have a set up where it clearly show its will it still clear it?

Why are you wasting money on the strut tower brace?

I just got my 1LE yesterday, but from what I saw under the hood there seems to be bracing in there, from struts tower to firewall area.

The ZL1 1LE doesnt even bother to use the strut tower brace. If it added any performance they would have used it. The alpha platform chassis is plenty stiff enough without it in hardtop form.

More space for stickers under the hood = More horsepower.
