My 1965 Dart ( back half SFI certed to 7.5) done by Forest on here is the same way on that bar except for supporting the front coil over shocks for the A arm CAP coil over front suspension Most of the older Mopar NHRA SS are done that way also Your more than welcome to stop by and look at it

There is a support under the upper shock mount. I'm thinking I can remove it and be okay with just a 1 5/8" bar. Doug and Jerico did you guys remove yours?
My bars are tied into the upper shock mount brace.

Right on, I will just scallop the brace to accept the tube and it should be okay. Again, no tire clearance issues? My looooooooooooong gravel driveway can be unforgiving if the road maintenance dept (me) get behind.
I am running 15x3.5's on the front. Might go to 4" as I am nit sure if the Weld 2.0's are that or 3.5.
Jeff, Cab, Doug, etc. thanks for the good pictures. This is my first solo cage and I'm a little wishy-washy with my vision.
A buddy stopped in, took on look and said "put the welder away, seam seal that beotch up, get the cage in it and let's go racing".
It feels good to be on the home stretch! It's funny how things that normally make a person crazy (i.e. 1/4 glass install, etc.) are appealing jobs after having to make all of your parts for a stretch. Looking forward to some bolt-together projects. I've been working on my car/truck projects from 4-6 am and about 8-12pm every day I possible for about 9 months. With work, a baby and my Mopar habit it's been kinda rough but we are racing this summer no matter what.

Just when I though my mind was made up...
Mark do you have any pictures of the a-pillar bars or dash bar. This really helps to compare a 66-67 b body considering that all of the years have different dashboards, etc. I have a bunch. Best to email. PM me your email.
