I looked on Katech’s website for the roof you’re referring to but couldn’t find it. Is there a link you can share please?

It's not on the website yet because I want to get final pictures on the race car we are building. It is an outer roof skin that can either be bonded to the OEM frame for street applications, or can be bolted to the cage to allow higher halo placement (bonding of brackets required).
Yeah, honestly I've never used the hub stands. I just haven't bothered to setup them up when I have a lift.
I've been dragging myself. I bought them right before I moved from Ga to LV...I have them built, but haven't used them. About to do a setup shortly so, I'll be doin my first run with them.
Alright, I just picked the car up from Piper Motorsports and they did a phenomenal job on the cage. I mentioned previously how we had to buy a roof skin from Katech and then bond brackets to it in order to get the room for the bars that run along the top next to your head. I just finished weighing the car and overall the car gained 80 lbs with the cage bringing the new weight on 18" Forgeline wheels, Pirelli slicks, and a full tank of fuel to 3288 lbs. We'll see how much of that we can drop by removing the A/C, lightened clutch and flywheel, and headers without cats. We might still get to 3200 lbs.
Next step will be to mount up the ZR1 wing, stage 3 front splitter, and ACS composites side skirts.
A good shot of how far the door bars stick out. This really helps get in and out of the car because you can sit on them.
Here you can see where they made up brackets to hold the mode dial that was in the center console as well as the SD card reader for the PDR system.
They relocated the door release from the trunk and made this red loop for emergency workers that approach the car.
Here's a shot of the door bar on the passenger side. I decided to leave the glove box out to give the passenger a little more leg room. Due to the rollover hoop the passenger seat is moved quite a bit forward of the driver seat.
A couple of shots of the cage and the roof brackets.
