Alright, are the best ways of strengthening the body of a 914? I want to weld in a role cage but I don't have a clue which kit to buy. I know the cage is a huge factor in making the body stronger. The car is at the stage now where anything is possible so please help me out, I only want to do this once.

What does it say about tube material, diameter, and wall thickness? The 'best' way is to have a professional do it - one who's done it before. Can't recommend anyone in particular without knowing what area you're in... |
