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.

I've heard the argument against a cage in a street car, but when I had my wild conversion, the fact it had a cage, made me feel very safe. Especially when even a Honda Civic looks big when your hunkered down in a 914. I had my cage padded, I had a Recaro race seat and wore 5 point harnesses all the time.
Solo makes a good point about hitting things covered in plastic in a normal car. Much less things like fire extingishers mounted on A-pillars. T.C. |
