R1 Strut Bar Dimensions

I've got an interesting FC project going on and none of the aftermarket strut tower bars will fit so I have to build my own. Before I get too carried away though I've always appreciated the R1 bar. Looks great, got the RX-7 logo right on top, its ADJUSTABLE, but before I begin the search for one I was wondering if someone could pull 2 measurements for me please so I can eyeball whether or not it's even close to fitting
1) length - from joint to joint
2) height - if it was placed on the floor how high is the "arch" if you will from the floor
It's a long shot & I know the mounts won't work but it could potentially save me a day of fabricating one to look as good. Thanks guys

No thanks. FWIW - I bill my clients @ $180/hr & I would never ask someone for a few bucks to strech a tape measure across two towers and then a strait edge from the tape to the top of the bar.

For what its worth I measured an R1 bar from the ground to the bottom of the bar, and it was 1.875" when the bar is sitting on the ground.
