<snip> ... that we will need a parachute.

Any suggestions on an inexpensive one? <snip>

"Inexpensive parachute" is an oxymoron.

LOL!

I guess I better not mention the Ford front end, modified Chevy rods and mains, and Chrysler lifters then! :-D


Dan, I did read that thread after you posted it. When I first posted, I had just received the email from Doug Robinson, and was feeling a little overwhelmed, I guess.

We'll get one, and get it installed properly.

Luckily, I was planning for the future, and ordered all the roll cage materials in 1-5/8", .132" wall thickness! :cheers:
