Fred..

I have 4" right now, not sure if that's going to be enough.
My friend has 3 1/2" on his Nova and no problems so far..

The rule book says no less than 3"..

And keep the bars low..

I knew what you were asking..


Chris..

It all depends on the height of the wheel stand, some times the pan is below grade.
