Dropped Footbox -

[NC427]

I have got a question in regard to the dropped footbox.

Being fairly tall I felt when sitting in the Kirkham with standard footbox that my subjective impression said: This is not what would really be enjoyable to me - Though the car will? of course be......

My present Cobra is very spacious inside once compared to the Kirkham and so I am wondering how much additional room is obtained once I opted for the dropped footbox (Kirkham webinfo says several inches - this could be 2 up to ?)

Also wondering if any of you have found other ways to increase space on drivers side via:

- Installation of seat without seat tracks
- Any seats recommendable which are less space intense in the area of the
wheel house?
- Wheel house modification so that seat can be mounted further back
- Modyfication of Kirkham seats
- Anyone tried installing a steering wheel with 14`diameter? Does this help?
- Any other modifications (except shrinking)

Last but not least: Anyone got an idea how much difference in space is relevant once comparing the 289 with the 427?

I shall be very thankful for any comments / advice!
