Also Sean, I'm sure I asked this before but are you going with a mild steel or chromoly cage? and are you tubbing the car?

that was actually my next question. also how is it supported from the bottom? i guess i just need to do it so i can see for myself to see how much i can actually do.

is your dash still off? if so can you snap some pics for me?

i am not sure what steel he is using. he told me it will be able to be certed to 8.50 if i wished to do so. but it can do 10.0 with no cert and its not gonna go that fast for a while.

and no it will not be hot pink cause if i drive it and i get beat by a street car then it will be really embarrising..

ill run the 302 motor to motor you will have a better cam and head but i have less weight and more cubes should be a good race.

Yeah, my dash is still off. It's got the 2 bolts/screws on the side, the 5 or so on top and the center console helps support it too.

Yeah dude, thats some serious times. Besides aren't you able to add onto the cage later on? just do the 8 point now and add the haloe later when the car is going that fast?

its getting a halo it is a six point then it has the hoop that goes around the roof and 2 bars that go down the pillar to where the firewall floorboard and kickpanel meet. i am still undecided on if i want snouts or not yet it depends on the $$$ situation.

snouts go from the front pillar bars through the firewall and strut tower then connect to the front frame rail at the bottom of the fender walls. i have decided not to do them cause i am shaving the engine bay.

[e3sean]

ok subframes were getting put in today here are a few pics i took on my call they go from about 12" into the front frame and go through the back frame all the way to the rear lower control arms inside the frame and through the floor.

Ohhhhh, OK... yeah I decided against them as well. I actually just bought a set of the inner fender covers that someone posted a link for in here a few pages back. Are you painting the cage or are they? what color?
ohhhh through floor subframes, nice.
