Thanks for the write up Steve. The remote master with the '69 pedal box might be even easier still. I'll have to dig out that box and see if it could work...
Thank you Russ for your efforts in selling my car. It's still for sale. Low '70's would take it! I don't know if the main or rod bearing diameters were...

Currently have the autopower 'race' rollbar in my GTV and am looking to go to a full cage due to chassis flex issues. Am considering the Autopower 'add-on'...
Tubing weights for a roll bar only are higher that that required for a full cage. Plus the Autopower bars were often made of ERW tubing. ERW is no longer...
Hi all, I just placed my Step Nose GTV tub on ebay... It is very nice, but i have recently had a priority shift... so it is available. Item # 8020532159 ...
... has to weigh more and thus the required tubing is either 1.50 x 0.120 or 1.75 x 0.095 inch DOM tubing. i'd think the 1.75 x .095 would be a stronger tube...
