Need a roll cage for my '66 Fairlane.. what's best ?

What is the best for my
build, gonna make my '66 into drag car.
I've read before (somewhere) that some types have
different halo bars than others. Just want to know
what worked best and still pass tech.
Thanks !

Cool

I used a kit from S & W Race Cars.

They are available in mild steel, DOM & Chrome moly.

They are pre notched where possible and mine fit pretty good.

S & W offers the best selection of cage kits I have found, but I am sure there are others as well, as I have a 63 Sedan and alot of the main stream companies did not offer a kit for my car.

And as always, please obtain a current NHRA rule book. Any kit will come with instructions for installation, but it is up to you to verify that the installation is current & legal for Tech.

I have S&W in my '67 hardtop. Good stuff. It's mild steel, but I would go with chrome moly if I had to do it over again.
