I decided that if I was going to stiffen up my chassis to deal with the extra power and tire forces, a cage might be a good idea. After doing some research, I found out the John Greenwood of Corvette racing fame didn't run forward of the dash area with any of his cages, I decided to do the same, so 10 point became 8 point. The corvette body construction causes a problem for any cages. Either you weld one in through holes in the floor to the chassis, or you have to make a cage that sits in the body, but bolts to the chassis. That is the method that I chose. It is a little bit like building a ship in a bottle.
The pictures explain most of what I did. I have added door bars which go from the main tube but end at the transmission crossmember.
Adding a roll cage points out exactly how small a car the Corvette Coupe really is.
As you can see from the pics., I was able to put the windshield bars in such a way, that there is no blocking of your view out from the drivers seat. I had to bend the drivers side bar 5 times to get it right!!!
