I didn't bother with it and things seem to remain stable.

I check it every week as part of my usual PM routine.

How about the rest of you?

I don't have the C&L but I'd imagine its their to prevent chaffing or prevent flexing under load. I'd rather be safe than sorry.

I use it. You have to knock the bushing off of the valve cover bolt to put the bracket on. Has to be done on a vise or something simmilar that will be able to hold the bushing so you can knock out the bolt. Makes a very solid set up.

I did not use it on my installation, and no problems after a year of operation.

I'm using the bracket, it was easy to install. I figured I'd rather play it safe. The C&L intake is fairly heavy, so I thought the extra support was a good thing.

I use it too, because it says to.

Does anyone know if the racer version uses it as well.

Yay I just ordered my C&L and SCT package this morning! Im so happy! Any ideas how long it will take to get from Indiana to Florida?


Sorry about hijacking >.<

Did not use it on my installation. Seems stable enough without it. Did not want to remove a bolt from the valve cover at that time. Check it often, no issues. If I see something going on there I will certainly use it.

Yep, used it on my installation as well. Just felt a bit more secure about it....(it was my first mod)
