Question Superformance Rollbar Dimensions

Does anybody know what the distance is centerline to centerline of the rollbar legs? I believe it is 13" and some change. Thanks in advance.

Kris,
I no longer have the original style rollbar. I measured center to center from the outer tube (same location as original rollbar) to the location of the original inner tube. With that caveat, from the outer tube to the location for the inner tube is as you say 13" and change. About 13 1/8".
Hope this is better than nothing.

Beware, rollbars often will not swap between spf cars. They are numbered, like the hood and trunk hinges, because they don't interchange all the time between all spf's. Fortunately, if you loosen the two mounting bolts on the hoop leg closer to the passenger (13 mm socket and a long extension) you can get it to fit then tighten up those bolts.

They probably overbend some of the bars on accident. No big deal. As far as the distance between the legs, I would bet they are all pretty close to one another. Thanks for the reply though.
