Modifying existing single roll hoop
Hi folks 
I have the standard single roll hoop on my Indy, and want to modify it to a MSA type set up with rear stays and a diagonal. Has anyone had this done
and if so, who did it for you?
Don't really want to go to MK after all the horror stories I've heard

I built an MK Indy a few years ago. Same as you it had a single roll hoop although it was welded to the chassis by MK themselves. I believe to weld
in rear stays you need plates welded into the rear of the chassis itself. MK Sportscars may be the best bet for having the work done, but looking at
your location they're a long way from you.

Much simpler to get a new one made. I'll bet the roll hoop itself doesn't meet MSA standards (45mm x 2.5mm CDS minimum).

No surprise there Mate, have you read this:-
Trouble with MK ?
That's why I asked for ideas for someone else who could do it....
