I'm exactly the same size and I made the basic KR2 fuselage work for me with only minor (in my mind) mod's. I would like to have two or three more inches of leg room but that is accommodated somewhat in the 2's plans I believe. I've not seen the 2's plans but I think it gives you 2 more inches forward of the forward spar. 2's builders correct me if I'm wrong here. I raised my forward deck 1 3/4" at the instrument panel and kept the bottom of the instrument panel even with the top of the top longerons. I mounted my rudder peddles on the upper firewall box. My canopy and turtledeck are both raised to give me the headroom I wanted. 230 hours and I have yet to bump my head on the canopy or side glass. Other than the leg room it's a good fit. If you keep the fuselage wide back to the shoulders as others have suggested it should fit just fine. If you get to the Gathering you can try mine on for size. Larry Flesner
