Weight of the 6pt cage?
In order for it to be legal, the plates that have to welded to teh floor along weigh quite a bit... they are a 6 inch y 6 inch plate that is 1/8 thick.. taht alonw is gonna be a good amount of weight.
I'd call a good fab shop, see what they can do for you, they might be able to do one that will be slightly lighter, depending on where you want the rear bars to mount, that kind of stuff. I can get you a # of someone if you want... same place I am planning on using myself, located here in CT.
Plan on needing one next year?

The 6pt chrome moly bolt in in my car weighs 58lbs with the hardware/backup plates. Weld in will be a little lighter because it doesnt need the backup plates or the hardware..

I know I"ll need one myself Dave.. but teh problem is that by the time I get done putting the TH400 in, shocks, new tires, brakes and all the other little crap I need to do, I'll be out of car cash for the season... gues sit will have to wait until next year.
Maybe, if I'm lucky, I'll get to a track rental, and at least get a few n/a passes in.... if I find a way to get the bottle in teh car this year...I'm sure one pass of that and it will be "you're outta here!!"
