[PICS] C5 Z06 road race car. Cage, 427 rebuild, fire supression
We just wrapped up this project. The cage turned out very well so I thought I would share some pics here.
Objectives:
1. Rebuild existing 427
2. Change pistons to accept LS7 heads
3. Install LS7 heads and Katech Torquer LS7 camshaft
4. Build roll cage to customer specifications
5. Install fire supression system
Results:
600hp, 569tq
Nice cage that is easy to enter/exit
Maintains power windows

WOW! Awesome cage work!!
Great job, but I would expect nothing less than perfection?
Will this car be making it to Track Attack??

If you would like a cage we can discuss what you need and I'll make a custom quote for you.

Beautiful cage! I don't think I've EVER described cage work as beautiful, but it appears to be quality workmanship from the photos. Please send me a quote for both roll cage and fire suppression system installed in a 2004 C5 Coupe. Mike

Would you be able to street the car with that type of cage or would it be hazardous without a helmet? Also, will Ultrashield seats fit inside the door rails?
Thanks!
Impressive work!

It is potentially hazardous without a helmet. There is padding on the roll cage but thats not usually enough.
Most aftermarket seats should fit in.
