FAO anyone with FIA Roll Bar

[Blatman]

At 5'11", I had a little problem with my legs fouling the steering wheel with the Westfield race seat, so I lengthened the steering column to bring the wheel closer to me. I have enough room to move the pedal box away by about 2 inches, too, BUT my exhaust (it's a Cossie, so the exhausts exit on the drivers side) sounds like it's further away than the carbs on the crossflow..............

What about a remote reservoir for the brakes?

I reckon with careful attention to all the various components of the problem, a solution might just be possible.......however, it's looking like quite a bit of work. It may just be simpler and cheaper to get a custom hoop made up. Search the web for The Roll Centre, and Custom Cages. They'll be the places to start looking.

Why don't you see is Westfield do a tall one. Alternatively you can get an extra 'hoop' welded where your head goes.

I can get a full custom bar to my specified height from Paul at Plays-Kool for about £300 with a cross brace which also goes into the passenger footwell (detachable of course) so I think this is the way forward.

Cheers for all of your help everyone, much appreciated,
