Good luck.

My buddy is having one done. Mark Markow from CT was first choice but he died. Second choice in Rochester closed up shop due to Covid. We finally went to my old Buddy Frank @ F&R in Johnsonville NY. He said that if I wasn't an old friend he would have said no way as he is swamped.

depends on one's skills and equipment he owns, whether to build your own or have a shop installation.
one thing REALLY bugs me about "home built" cages, and they are super easy to spot, is the "booger welds" ! down
i know you can't grind down welds, but if tracks allow these "boogers" to go down the track, you might as well allow "muffler moly" tubing to be used ! mad

My car is a home built car, passes the 25.5 (7:50 e.t.) every time. In fact several features on my cage our local NHRA inspector praises about my car. He is a die hard Chevy dude and never believes mine is a street car and always says it is too nicely done to race.

Yup. I knew Mark from 40+ years ago when he worked at PCA. I graduated HS with his brother who also has sadly passed away. My buddy who needs the cage - his mom is friends with the Mark's mom. The old New Britain Polish community connection.........

Mines home built as well. I bent most of it myself. Fitted it and tacked it. Then hiring a pro to tig weld it. It was time consuming. But it was fun to do.
