Looks great man, I have got to cage my car as well. Have any of you guys used a Midwest Chassis 8 point cage? Not roll bar but cage.

Thanks for all the replies guys. Exactly what I was looking for.
I have another question. We are installing a 6 gal. Fuel cell in the well in the back.
If anyone has done this, how did you separate it from the drivers compartment?
Injuneer it looks like you have a panel running up to the rear hatch?

Chrome moly. So are the subframe connectors. The hoop is supposed to be integrated with the back end of the SFC's, and the front brace is supposed to be integrated with the front end of the SFC. That's what I asked him to do.

Can't remember the guy who built/installed it. He had a shop up near Sparta, NJ and had done a lot of work for George Baxter... figured that was good enough for me. Shortly after he did my car, he got a job with Roush racing, and moved out of state.

Thats just the stock, flimsy fiber hatch cover panel. I don't have a cell. I have a pic of a cell in the back of a 4th Gen, but it's a vert and has stock sheet metal between the trunk and the passenger compartment.

There was someone making/selling a sheet metal panel that did look similar to what is in my pic, and was accepted as a "firewall", although that seemed like a stretch to me. Can't remember who made it.... long time ago.

I think it was Madman's setup.... where he raised the floor of the hatch so it was above the cell, and only the fill cap was accessible from inside. Everything else was technically outside the body. He may even have had some sort of cover over the hole for the fill cap.

Also remember seeing one in the stock tank location, with an access panel in the vertical wall of the hatch well.

I'm thinking about building a cover over the cell, tied into the tail panel support with 2 small side panels and vent it to the area where the filler neck was. I agree the sheetmetal panel seems like a stretch. I don't know how you could get a tight firewall seal to the rear hatch. I know there is a ton of 4th gen stock eliminator cars out there, I've been looking for pictures of what there running but I haven't found any. I've seen them at the track but I didn't pay attention to that detail.

We finally have the roll bar installed. Here are a couple pics.
We installed through floor frame connectors and attached struts from the main hoop to the
frame connectors. Currently building an enclosure for the Aeromotive 6 gal. Fuel cell in the rear, and
changing the 4L60E to a Turbo 350.
Thanks again for everyone's help.
