Does anybody have a RD strut brace installed? - (archive)

I just put mine on and there is barely an 1/8" of clearance between the intake plenum and the strut brace. So far, I have added two washers (one on each strut top bolt, on the two inner bolts on each side), there is no more room for washers unless I replace the strut top studs. This has still not given me enough clearance. Am I going to have to grind a little plenum flesh to give the engine some breathing room?
