By my calcs you should have 5'-5" under the lift when you have a Camaro all the way up. So you can stack too!
If you do start going further let me know. I can fill you in to what I have learned.

That's a pretty snazzy sketch you did there Windy, I'm liking it and I think the Mrs. would easily be able to work comfortably with 5'-5'' under the
lift
Please do pass on what you have learned when time allows.

I'm getting too old for ramps and crawling under cars and the stack-ability is a sweet plus.

Windy do they have a Texas version so a 6'4" guy can walk under it without having to a variation of the Limbo? I have been trying to buy a lot about 2 houses down for a shop, plan on plenty of roof hieght.

Here is the lift I bought http://www.bendpak.com/bendpak-produ...ts/HD-9XW.aspx
It's max. lifting height is 6'-10", even the bean pole Junkie will fit under there!
You only need 100" for the lift, the rest is so you don't shove the car through the roof!
One thing you guys need to consider if you want to install a lift, you need to check how level your garage floor is. Whatever pitch there is from the front to the back of the lift, you will have to shim the back end up. Where this matters is driving up the ramps onto the lift. You can go from 4" minimum ramp rise height, to 6 or 7 inches in a heartbeat. This means longer ramps to make the clearance.
There is a fair amount of room under a Camaro, but less than 5 under a C6.
Also make sure you have enough concrete poured in the floor. We have plenty of building inspectors here but in other areas I know they are lacking! 4" is a minimum.
Lastly is door clearance. The door needs to be "high rise" so it goes up high and fast enough to clear the lift. If anyone is seroiusly considering a lift and knows they will have a problem with the door, let me know. i can help with that!

Windy, I'm headed out of town for a couple of days but do have a couple more questions for you when I return.
