Thanks, Ron! You'll be glad to know that when I dropped my engine off @ Superior yesterday for their 383 stroker kit, included with it was this shiny new slick aluminum flywheel...

I am a little bit suprised that with all the work you put into the cage you didn't add a door bar that would run from the main hoop and run under your armpit. I'm laying out a cage that is almost exactly like yours and so far it doesn't seem to hinder seat entry/exit.
Thank you. The reason I didn't build the cage closer to me is I intend to also drive the car on the street. As such I don't want to have to wear a helmet and 5 point harness every time I drive. That's why the main hoop is further back than usual. The bar parallel to the rocker panel is tightly tucked under the arm rest- allowing that to provide some cushion between it and me. I know it won't pass NHRA spec...
