We are running a glide in it. I am using the new Weldon electric pump and a FAST XFI box. The engine is a 414 in. SBF with Yates heads.

The complete cage was built in the car. Then I lifted it out and welded it out on the bench. The cage is 1/2" from the roof so I wouldnt have been able to completely weld it out with the roof on.

Is this a common practice, or were you doing it to create a pattern? Still digging the outcome!

Common practice for most Mustangs. You can actually cut the roof off and never have to paint the car because all the plastic covers the pillars.
