"If you can read this, roll me over"

I ordered the 10 point cage yesterday for the racer. It's coming from a "one man" shop in the hills of central PA that specializes in custom auto frames and cages. He spent about an 30 minutes in my SVX with his meauring jigs and also got the measurements he'll need if someone wants an 8, 6 or 4 point cage and still wants to keep their interior.

We should be picking up the pieces in a week or so, I'll keep this updated with pics and fitment. But everything we've heard about this guy is that It should be just right.

Dave,
Will it be an "all bolt-in" kit, or will welding be required?

That would be tight if you could still keep the interior and it was bolt in.

What you want a ride so you can piss your pants going 100mph up the hills.

I'm getting giddy the closer we get to climbing. There's something real about not being able to laugh about your mistakes that is unless your spin doesn't involve a 30 foot embankment and 20 trees.

It would be a weld in cage. The options that they took though account for full interiors

You really don't want a bolt in cage for a unibody though Tom.

They come with the recommendation of virtually every local hillclimber I've talked to.
