Ive made a sort of non adjustable bias bar for the iva so that I dont have to weld mine up.
Ive set it to about 80% front. But if its wrong I can just cut two new grooves for the cir-clips and move the bearing along. You wont be able to see
that as it sits in the pedal bush
When set I will fit a couple of roll pins.
What do you think ? Will it pass if it gives the correct braking.
cheers

i dont see that as being adjustable. therefore i think it wil pass.
edit: nicely made BTW. theyll be a waiting list to borrow that for iva

i want one
It does look a lovely piece of kit but, according to the article in the latest Complete Kit Car, the IVA want a bioas bar to be "permanently
rendered unadjustable".
Roll pins were acceptable for SVA but apparantly will not be good enough for IVA

Hi
I think the theory is good 'in principle' however I would be concerned that drilling the bias bar where you have significantly reduces
it's strength. In my opinion its better to secure at a point outside of the clevis. Otherwise an interesting exercise, look forward to news as to
how it's received at IVA.

It only needs to last for a short time
Its a 4mm pin through a 7/16 bar.
Any one want to do the maths for me ?
You don't have a problem, there is very little stress of the bar where there's a hole through it. Your stress raisers are the circlip grooves..... keep them as shallow as you dare....
