Thanks man.
It took a while to fit the cage by myself but it is just how I want it.
Hey what did you use to paint yours? I was thinking some engine block paint. That stuff is super strong and has rust inhibitors in it too.

Bobby when is your twin turbo beast gonna actually hit the road?
I plan to get back to the tracks in September. I screwed up another transmission, ate up the syncros, so that brand new one lasted around two years.
I just put in a rebuild so at least I can get the car into gear now.
So all in all, I am exactly where I was two years ago! Progress!

I have to admit that I am getting the itch. I keep resisting the evil force, but a single may be in my future for next year.
Ya know, I could not have run the car more than 30 times with that brand new tranny in it. I only missed one shift, an ugly miss I admit, but all in all, powershifting may not be a good idea.
