Roll Cage
I just got done stripping my interior down to bare metal, primering and re-lining it. My next move is a cage. I am not sure which cage to get. I'm going to be running a high 10-low 11 sec. car all motor (357). Should I get a 8 point cage? And has anyone had any experience with any companys that they could recommend? Also, does anyone have a pic. of a 8, 10, or 12 point cage installed. BTW, I am def. looking for something w/ swing open doors because it will be driven on the street pretty often. Thanks alot. Its my first cage so ANY help will be greatly appreciated.

RE: Roll Cage
Look at the advertiser 'Peyton Chassis' on here.
Are you planning on doing this yourself or having done?
Hope you know how to weld/fab if doing it yourself.
None of the 'gasless MIGS' that run on 120V will have enough power to do it right.
Around here, installation is about $100 per point.
I would use an 8 point if thats all the faster you are planning to run......

RE: Roll Cage
as for the price on cage that varies. at first it was 450 with the subframes welded in, then i took it back and had the tabs and side bars added in along with my anti roll bar,welded my torque boxes fully, welded my trans bracket. this was a nother 150 for all that add on. so i would have to say 600 for all the work ive had done. thats subframes, welded torque boxes, welded tranny brackets,6pt cage with side bars, and a shock tower bar, welded in anti roll bar and misc **** welded
also the prono red is gone!!!

RE: Roll Cage
I have a 90 gt vert. I want to get a roll bar for it. Something that looks similar to the lightbar for 90 mustang verts. I have been thinking about building it myself but that would involve learning to weld [>:] I want it fairly simple but affective as it will be seen every time the top is down. Any suggestions for place to buy one or get ideas?
