keep up the good work! this thing is bad ass, i would love to see it. So what is all involved in removing this mysterious 40lbs?

Inside the roof. Pull out all roof reinforcing. I guess some guys cut the roof off first to do it.

Not quite as light as I was hoping for. It is still 800 lbs.

800 lbs means, what, low 8s now all other things equal?

That's going to be a hell of an upgrade.

Still RS/U legal?

Yes, still R/S-U legal. Should be low 8's, hopefully I can start bringing in boost sooner and turn it up higher. Had 25 psi in 3rd gear last year.

Well since my junk won't stay running I ordered some more stuff, hope it's needed.

Trust me; its not just going to fit in, none of them ever do. They all take a ton of bending and tweaking.

Did you ever figure out if the old rollcage was MS or CM? I assume you are just going to cut the old stuff our and start over?
