Ok, so I think I'm ready to install a roll cage in my 73 914 V8. I was thinking about going with an Autopower for an easy install since I lack welding skills. I have friends that could weld the feat in and I can do the rest. Anyone installed an Autopower in their car? And will my harness bar still fit? Any advice would be helpfull. Thanx, Paul.

IMHO a roll bar is a street car is a bad idea. Unless your strapped in a 5 point and wearing a helmet to protect your coco nut it's a suicide mission.

IMHO a roll bar is a street car is a bad idea. Unless your strapped in a 5 point and wearing a helmet to protect your coco nut it's a suicide mission. I thought that too. Then I built a race car. That's what high density and medium density foam is for. If you think about it, in any street car you head and body is sometimes only a piece of plastic away from the steel body. So, if I were to build a street car with a cage, I would put foam around all the bars that I could contact. kyle |
