    Mark, do you have any pics of Bob Conlan's spring loaded swing out bars from SSOTN? I don't know where he got them but they are the coolest swing out setup I have ever seen.

    The BEST roll bar I ever saw was the one Mike has in his yellow '03 from rigid race cars. The welds were the best I have ever seen.

    My dad has a S&W mild steel bar in his '91. Its OK and I'm sure it'd do its job if it ever had to, but I've seen nicer kits. Lou's wolf racecraft bar is nice.

    I have installed about every roll bar kit on the market and they all fit pretty well, but i usually just buy the hoops from S&W and make the rest...

    Does anyone local do chrome moly and custom bends? Also, Chrome moly has to be tigged to be legal, can MS also be done this way for a nicer looking weld? I have a specific way I want my bar to be installed and I need someone that can do chrome moly, custom bends (not all of the tubes will be straight), and tig it so it looks as good as it functions. Looks are as high on my list as function since its a 'vert and everyone will see it.

    Wasn't there someone local running a $75/point special on here? i thought I saw it somewhere but its no where to be found now.

    Paul,

    I met with Kurt of K-Tec (Ruffsdale, PA) on saturday & asked about the spring loaded swing-outs. He said NHRA will no longer certify them.
