I really don’t want to go down the EFI swap route with this thing. I just want something dumb ass, cheap and simple that will do for now. Maybe I will give it to the mechanic up the road from me, he can give it the once over and let me know. In between karting, Kombi restos, and driving the Senator I don’t have a lot of spare time to mess around with it.

What have I missed here, what’s the deal with the SCoupe? Bonnet on the beemer looks purposeful, I like it.

I spoke to Matt and he said they aren’t adjustable. I am guessing you know this but they (system not straps) are made in different angles for open wheeler vs sedan etc. But yes they are long. He sent me this link to the Hans website where it says this in FAQ

Sweet as mate, we are racing at the Nats this weekend, if I remember will ask Matt how he had his hans set up done, but I agree it’s the one thing you shouldn’t skimp on, you only get one head!!

I’m trying to get my head around this. So if you were to cut out the middle of the K frame and lower it. You would achieve the same thing as spacing it down but the suspension geometry would remain standard? is that right. Not saying to do it btw, but if the K frame spacers are legal maybe a modified K frame is a better way to go?
