That statement infers that doing something out of the scope of the rule book is alright as long as it isnt spoken of...at least that is how I interpreted it. I don't exist in a grey area nor do I wish to...I'm the most black and white person you are likely to meet and make no apologies for it. The only reason I post on this forum is because I thought this would be the best place to gather information from like minded racers on subjects or issues I have with ongoing projects.

I understand this is a open forum and I appreciate information and suggestions from all regardless of experience...you never know what ideas might prove beneficial until you hear them. I like to think I'm savvy enough to sort through and consider all input. Those that follow me here know I am not prone to opinions nor do I usually comment on subjects unless I have personal experience with them. Btw, I do have contact with and consider advice from some of the racers you mentioned, but I do not limit myself or censor information from all other sources.

With that off my chest let's continue this build. Hoping I can take delivery early enough tm to allow me to at least set the hoop in the car to measure clearance with the ragtop.
Rich, I'm not sure how to reply to this, as I'm not really sure you got my original point.
Let me ask you this; Do you think you could leave the under hood fender braces off of your 67 Camaro and nobody would notice ?
Conversely, how about the under chassis front braces on a convertible only Fox body?

I suppose I should have answered like this:
No you can't take the brace off. It's part of the car ...just like the Camaro fender braces.

Doing a nice job..Carry on!
