Couple question again for Richard if you happen by. I got few tubes tacked in today, and it raised a couple questions. I don't see (or maybe I'm looking in the wrong place) any information about the height of the dash/lower windshield bar. If I put it right under the dash it may be a chin bruiser. I'd like to put it about an 1" or 2" or higher if allowed above the bottom of the dash. I have a clear straight shot between the two windshield / roof bars behind the dash.
Also, I don't see any rules / drawings detailing the (2) bars from the top rear halo back to the frame rails. Since that's outside the drivers' "box" can I assume that's up to me? I'm undecided between:
Top of the halo to the top of the back half rails
or
maybe running them all the way back like I have 1 mocked up in the pic.
The way I have them mocked up here would provide extra support for the back half rails and reinforcement for the parachute brackets? The short way would save about 5 lbs. per side.
Thanks again for your help
