>>Question: Has anyone successfully fitted one of these without modifications? I'm wondering what Sparco's deal is--are they all wrong, or did they change the dimensions somewhere along the line? Weird.<<

I had to file one of the holes a bit though... maybe a minute or two of effort. The hardest part for me was installing the third bolt on the side of the tower. I had to drop the struts to be able to drill the holes and install the bolt. I agonized over whether to drill the hole or not but decided to do it for the structural benefits. They come in a red/orange powder coated finish and you definitely need to remove the bolt holding the hose on the back of the plenum.
