crazy.... you are about a week ahead of me. My cage is hopefully getting finished up today. My motor is also being ripped out for the new pistons and rebuild. Then the good stuff!!!

Didn't think it would cost as much, almost double of what i had in mind.

Anyways, rollbar looks good and the welds are really nice. bars huge the panels nice, which is something i look for in a bar.

laterZ!

The job's not done, yet. I don't see the diagonal braces from the main hoop, to the tunnel area. These have to be there in unibody cars.
Once you go to a bar, the seat backs have to be bolted to the cross bar, and the belts have to be changed to a race approved belt.

If they really push it, at tech.. You will also have to have the seats mounted to the frame members.

are you think of using padding when not at the track?

If so, which ones would you recommend, or anyone for that matter, that is a decent choice for street use?

Looks good but I'm confused.In the sig it say's 10.6 in the 1/4,then you are adding more power but still have a 6 point rollbar? I would figure the car would have a 8 point to go 9's

5-6pt roll BAR minimum is needed to 10.0 on a stock floored/body car.

9.9-8.50 needs a 8pt roll CAGE minimum.

Lot of people say 10pt and assume roll cage, just as many that call a 6pt roll bar a roll cage
