Can anybody point me to a tall front shock tower for an optima mid? I plan to build a turbo optima mid special and apply a long front shock setup to it like many drivers used in that era. I am looking either for a design or finished new or used product. Many thanks for pointing me in that direction ! I also thought about these in the first place but i was wondering if there are any period correct alternatives (e.g. pre-lazer times) that provide a lay down look with top mounting holes very close to each other.alcyon wrote:You can use the zxr mk2 tower.

I don't think there were any. I believe the front long shock trend only started in 1990 and people were putting extensions on their Lazer ZX front towers or making new long ones. You could always tell fibrelyte to extend the standard optima mid one by x amount of mm. Sketch it for them and they could certainly do it. I like your term "optimist" .phoenix wrote:Many thanks for pointing me in that direction !
