Auto Power makes a bolt in kit, but the roll bar setup really should be welded in.

Kenny Brown cage is not NHRA legal because the front bars run along the rocker. It runs $699 and needs to be welded in. this thing with a set of SFC's will make a car way tighter than anything else. This is on my plan for the future.
