Default Installing a rollbar

I picked up an Autopower rollbar a couple months ago. It's the
bolt-in type (floor and wheel well). Is there a "proper" position
to install the bar, re: distance behind the seats, plumb vertical,
etc?

The drill-holes-and-bolt-in part seems pretty clear.

Thanks in advance.

Greg feel free to call 703 534 8153. Some things to check before drilling holes but over all a simple install.

I have a saftey devices bolt in cage (with weld in plates) installed in my '72. I had it installed by ASG...you're welcome to check it out. I keep the car garaged in Tysons.
