Can anyone help with the correct size spacer for the brace that the pipes go under? Also where to get it would be appreciated.

The ARH system comes with the spacers.

If you get the BMR tunnel brace, you won't need spacers.

If you get the Kooks system, just get yourself some large washers. Two or three on each bolt will be fine.

I got some 1/2" "large washers" (larger daimeter and fairly thick)at Ace Hardware. I Used three on each bolt.

The spacers that come with the ARH system are 3/16. Our brace is also 3/16, and when used with the SFC adds an extra 3/16 for 3/8" overall clearance.

I just bought the brace. As soon as it gets here......I'll post something.
I also mentioned this site when ordering and got a small discount. Thanks!!!

I installed the brace. It took about 5 min once I got the car on ramps. THis thing puts
the stock brace to shame. If you smacked someone in the head with it you'd kill'em where as the stock brace would just bend !

How much and where do I get it? I'm doing some exhaust modification next week (taking out the stock resonators & the 2" pipe that goes between them and the pipes that come off the cats). I'd like to get the new brace and have it all installed at one time. If you would please?!

Never mind. I just went on BMR's web site and I see the brace. Thanks.
