Are you referring to the strut bar? Just remove it.

A:
to get the engine cover off. And I wouldn't mess with the brace, anyway: I'm certain it was installed/tightened with some needed accuracy. You do so at your own peril.
PS: What did you do to your cover that requires replacing it?

i think meth is right...the only way is to removed the strut bar. just be careful! Take notice on how it is setup while you remove it. i believe a 12mm deep socket wrench will do. I said "deep" becuz there are two screws that require it.
its easy...just becareful when it comes off. cuz it rotates real easily...you'll understand once you do it.

I don't think, I know...
Well, I don't think you know either
A:
It is not as finished without the engine cover. I think with a Craford you would not need it and it would look nice. If you take the cover off you will notice how the intake is squished down in front. That cannot be good for even air flow to all the cylinders. The Crawford Intake cures this problem. But, you have to relocate the strut tower brace. They sell the brackest to offset it.
