Similar to bearingburner when I built my liner i did a frame of PVC pipe for cockpit and other fitment issues. Thought I had plenty of space. Forgot to wear helmet (which have gotten bigger) and fire suit when sitting in the car so car was built and I couldn't get in and out safely, needed to cut the front bar and redo it. Onece at the track. Be sure you have full suit on if you go that way. Firesuit is bulky (you are getting a -20 aren't you?) and helmets take up a lot of space. Krikey, with todays rules, getting out of a door car is hard, let alone a laydown lakester or liner. You need space for fire bottles, coolant, fuel, etc etc. It gets really tight in a small liner. Give yourself space and figure everything before cutting steel. Have fun, looks good. ( I am also using snowmobile power)
