Default height limitations

Brent, As soon as I sell my car, I am planning to build either the RCR MarkIV or the RCR T70 Lola. I'm 6'3" and was wondering how the fit is in the MarkIV?

Fran has indicated tall folks can fit in there fine. I Dean Lampe with a Mk1 is pretty tall, so I know it's possible. They are NOT big cars by any stretch. There is plenty of foot room, and depending on seat position, you can lay back quite a ways I think. Just need to make sure you like your passenger!

This week I needed to make the mounts for my Alternator and A/C pump. After a lot of thinking, I came up with a reasonable solution I believe. It's very solid and I think will be golden. Everything lines up and very functional.







Cut an alternator bracket end off of a 390 I have and welded it to a mount I made that attaches to the block.



Here's the mount that attaches to the block that I made. The picture doesn't show the finished version as I cut the downtube to proper length and painted it a cast aluminum color that looks nice.
