..although, after my initial test- drive on my (not-even-half-finished) XJ with an exhaust pipe about 15" long, that sounds pretty lean

The cage has begun, we got the hoop bent to perfection on our first go. none of the feet of the cage have been attached yet or anything.

i just cut the slant-backs 10 seconds before the pic so their length needs to be adjusted for mounting and such. otherwise, this is the beginning
