Re: looking for suggestions

Re: looking for suggestions

Who's cage kit did you use? I am looking for a 10 or 12 point kit for a road race application and fitment at the A pillar and tucked up into the roof are important.

Did see a great cage on a car that tucked in perfectly to the pillars and was a hidden Halo. Uptight and out of sight is how to describe it that was for sure. The finished car had the upholstery wrap the bars into A Pillars and headliner so it blended in. Only bars noticed from outside car were two coming down in the rear window. It was not certified since it was covered by interior but was functional in case of accident.

they came pre bent all i had to do was a little trimming and math to get it centered for the axle. im hoping to take my 454 block over to my local machine with in the next couple of weeks to find out how big of a stroker kit i can run
