theres more left in her, my 4 th time to track with only 2-3 passes a night, car was running strong with the cool night air, but track official booted me for not having a cage, hope to break 10.50's once cage is in, getting alot of body flex even with the subframe connectors

You don't need a "cage" to run in the 10's, at least not in NHRA, only a 5-point roll bar. Certified cage is required below 10.00.

 

@ the tracks up here, anything faster than 11.50 need a 6 point what the tech official said last night

 

A "6 point" is still not a "cage", its a roll bar.

 

great runs , glad to hear about the self ported heads

pictures or vid?

 

Where you running at? You're only about 30 minutes from me.If you run OC I've probably seen your car. What color is it and next time, I'll swing over and say hi.

Hey were you at OC last night with a black 4th gen with little cowl hood? If so I did say hi as I walked right past ya. If that was you, you row those gears pretty good

EXCUUUUUSE ME! ROLL BAR!! bar/ cage, who cares, doesn't matter still got booted for not having either one, and excuse me for mistyping torque arm aswell

 

Who cares, you will when you see the difference in price. That and a few other things to run lower than 11.50.

 

Just trying to save you a $1000 or more.

It was not my intent to pi$$ you off. I'll butt out

 

IF, you can TIG weld, you can get a 10 point from Spohn or S&W racecars for $599 and those are the chromoly cages. The 6 point is about 1/2 of that but if you get Chromoly, you WILL need to TIG weld it.
I recently tore my dash out to delete my A/C. It was not fun, especially doing it by myself. The 6 point won't go thru the dash but the 10 point will. Good luck!! and nice time runs

 

Lane Automotive sells a mild steel one for around 200.00 ( 6pt)weighs 20lbs more than chrome moly
