if you lower the attaching point you wouldn't need a bend

My 8.50 cage had some bends in it. It was built a long time ago though.
Looks great so far Chad! That's gonna be a great car. Keep your eyes peeled for a stroker kit, my Duster motor is street only, but it's 500" just because I found someone selling a complete stroker kit brand new for $1500, it had an Eagle crank, Eagle Rods, JE flat top pistons. I used my stock main caps with a 440Source main girdle. I wanted alot of torque so I could run a tight converter and 3.55 gears.
Thanks and will do. We have a few 440 and 400 blocks, thanks for the heads up. You gonna be back out this year?

that seat sets up pretty high. if you are going to X brace make sure the other bar is low. with a removable steering wheel you should be good.
Yes it is, but that's as low as we could get it. The frame rail is about 3/16away from the handle underneath the seat to slide it back and forth. Just thick bottoms, wanted kirkey seats but I won't have that much in the motor lol

No I kinda retired from racing, might get back into it when my son is done with schooling and travel sports. My Duster is almost done, already drove it several times. Just a 600HP street cruiser with no cage or tubs, pump gas with comfy seats lol.
