cage/subframes tied together what setups do yall guys have? and how did yall tie them together?
does the cage go though the floor all the wat to the sfc or did you weld cage to a plate then weld sfc to another plate underd the car?
im wondering what to order, since im goana tie it all together i was thinking spohn CM SFC with a wolfe CM 6 point not jig notched so we could still tie them together

this is a matter of rule interpretation...
by the rulebook, unibody cars must be welded to 6x6 plates on the floor...so even if you go thru the floor to a subframe, you may still need a plate there too.
on full framed cars they go to the frame...but a unibody for SFCs is still not full-framed...

you could just run some round bar with a plate to the floor pan under the cage mounting area. the best advice i heard is to have your mounting plate extend through two axises if i'm terming that correctly. like in the pic above how its on the flat top part of what i believe is the torsion box (i'm really not good with terminology 
) and then extends down the backside of it.

look at bars 2A and 2B on the 25.5 
By design they are supposed to ultimately tie into the subframes
even then, the rocker bars run in between the OEM subframes which tie everything together.

You're rocker bars are above the floorboard, right?
Are 2A and 2B needed if using the OEM firewall and trans tunnel?
