i really want a cage but seeing that its hard enough just to try to get my mount welded, i was tossing the idea of a bolt in auto power race roll bar since i can install it myself and be “street legal”. ---

well so after having no luck finding a welder. the next best thing to do is to just get it done myself, so i went out and bought myself a lincoln 140c mig welder and a torque wrench to install my flywheel and pp. pics will be up soon after i weld the mount ---
