Default Steering wheel height!

Hi there,
Im putting a different steering column into the roadster and was wondering what height is the end of the column (where wheel mounts) from the floor?
Also how far back is it supposed to be?
Thanks very much,
Darryl

Do it to suit you and how you prefer to drive.

Yeah I was jus thinkin that myself jus after posting the tread!
It's a electric power steering column outta a Mgf.
Theres probably no need for it but may use the car for autotesting so taught I'd try it!
Darryl!

One of those things that you can only get close to where you want it until you drive the car, therefore worth building in some adjustability in the main mounts that way when you get it on the road you can adjust with ease and not have to drill and fabricate.
