Re: Roll bar (ZRWANABE)
Forget the bolt in and go custom. It may cost more at the start, but well worth it in my opinion. Not to mention better looking also.

Re: Roll bar (Vette92)
Exotic Muscle used to offer them, don't know if they still do. ONly a 4 point you may need to add a door bar to get NHRA legal as I think they require a 5 point bar, but would be a good start. I think mild steel was about $350 and chrome moly about $550

It's like "I need to have a fire extinguisher, that is what the rules said"... but they'll put in an empty one just to "comply"?
Roll cages aren't for anything but saving your hide in the likely event that something causes you to wreck at high speeds. This isn't something to go cheap on. Do it right.
Plus, a custom roll bar will make great use of your interior space and give you lots of visibility, vs. a "mass produced" which doesn't even come close to that.
My 2 cents.

I called the place that made mackey's and that was the quote for a five point. (The fifth point being the swing out door bar)
Frank, can you explain why a door bar costs $1200, they sure couldn't.

Maybe because they can't get an $1800 custom rollbar for free to endorse it like some people do ? j/k (kinda)
