I'm extremely happy with my DSE setup, it fits tight. Rob has an S&W setup but hasn't installed it yet, I'm curious how that will work for him since I'm considering adding a halo and downbars making mine a 10 point.

I took pictures of this cage built at Campbell's auto and restoration on a 69 Camaro.

The fab work on the cage done in Campbell looks nice, but I believe that the side (door) bars need to pass between shoulder and elbow, to be NHRA/IHRA legal.

This might be OK for a road race sanctioning body, though, I really don't know.

It will be a couple of months before my S&W cage goes in, when it does I will post some photos.
