Rod,
 Make sure you build the cage correct if you ever plan to race it. The cross bar must be in a certain spot, this is why I mentioned hinging and pinning it. Check with NHRA rules or call their tech on that I know putting a bar lower will not fly at the track. 
 But that's no reason you can't make a few "changes" You can hide the fact that it is removable with the roll bar padding when you go to the track!

Thanks for the enthusiasm guys.
I measured a while ago and my racing seat is only 21 inches wide, so 
I may use it. I was thinking of mounting one of thos little flip 
seats to. Like they use on fishing boats. It would be small and fold 
down when not in use.
I think I could cut the roll bar going across the back and maybe 
lower or raise it. Maybe take it out all together. My engine will 
look wild, but wont put to much stress on the frame because it will 
be using a mild convertor and a 2 speed glide.
I might be able to run a bar close to the floor and have the bend 
go right over the hump on the floor and run some sorta roll bar up 
from it to make my seat bracket for the rear seat???
I'll figure it out. I think youve talked me into keeping it. Thanks 
all. Rod :)
