I'm not real sure how his custom cage can be almost twice the value, but I def have some more research to do.
MWC is good stuff. I wouldn't hesitate to use their kit.

ill answer for him

“The best engines that breathe in a lot of air are n/a”

then when a n/a car loses to a boosted car he will say “you needed boost to win”.

The irony.

That's about what I paid for mine (all in, parts/labor). I've developed the attitude of buy once, cry once. For the extra $, I got a more "custom" cage with everything fitting perfectly, removable door bars, etc.

But, I have no experience with the MWC cage, could be just as good for 1/2 the price. I have their 9" and its a quality piece.

Im sticking with static door bars. Wont be driving the car enough to really warrant the bars being a nuisance.

I'm thinking about downsizing from the Mustang and F150 to one vehicle that is fun, can be driven in snow and can tow 5000+ pounds. Any suggestions? I have been looking at used Trackhawks for reference. Not much can tow 5000+ pounds and still be a fun driver. Budget is under 80k or so.

A10 5.0 F150 regular cab with a 3.8 whipple. TrackHawk’s cost too much IMO.

Gen 5 3.0 whipple is more than enough to make coyotah soup and will fit easier.

That shop has a car for ling time like you. Difference is it runs 7.0 in the 1/4 letting out because of a wheelie at 900ft mark. Your **** can't stop blowing engines up. That shop tunes all of texas speed and performance cars. What do you tune? **** that blows up, or you help with cars that add heads, cam and then doesn't go faster. Lol
