Default Roll cage Halo orientation?

So i've 99% certain im going to run a full cage in my hotrod. Not for drag racing but more for personal safety. But if im going to go full cage i want to be able to pass nhra cert incase i decide to race often. My concern in the halo. I've seen a few different styles done, but not sure which meets nhra specs. I know the first is the more common one i've seen, but is the second acceptable as well? The second would be much better in my situation since it will hug the windsheild better since viability is already difficult with a chopped roofline.




Its going in this incase you wanted to know.

I have seen them done both ways and I'm sure either would pass tech.

Either will pass. The second one is the way we normally do them so I can tuck the bar up against the head liner.
