Default 3/4" to 1.5" clearance.

I'll measure the precise amount of clearance I currently have with the new mounts from Z1. I was using the planted mounts along with the Sparco Side rails. It seems to be lower to my view. The change in height is noticeable because I have to work a bit harder to see curb lines when turning sharper to avoid the potential for curbing my rims. I'll update this thread again shortly.
Ok guys, I have measured the clearance in the driver's seat with my helmet on and the race belts secured. I have about 1.5" clearance to the headliner from my helmet crown. For me this is about two fingers width. Depending on how I tilt my head forward or back it can drop to 3/4", still quite roomy for a track day appearance. I did not measure the passenger side for clearance but will update this thread with the same information as I have the helmet with me today. I expect it might be similar to the drivers side clearance. Details to follow.

What variety of pictures would you like. Let me know and I'll get them together.
