S & W racecars makes an 8 and 10 point. I was able to use their 10 point with my Glass station Pro V8 Chassis and even used their 14 pt conversion with only minor modifications but the cage is designed for use with the stock pan.

Hey, I used the 10 point cage with the 14 point cage conversion in my V8 VW. I bought it from S&W Race Cars and was fairly cheap. The kit comes for a stock vw but I had to modfily a couple bars slightly for my application but it worked out very well for me, as long as you have the necessary tools to install it and a little bit of time you should be ok. my car has the full cage inside, with x bars in the doors, x bars giong through the back to my frame rails, a dash bar, 2 bars running out the firewall to the front frame, and I have the funny car conversion kit installed in mine to, it was a pretty simple Job. Hope this helps.

Yeah, it came with the two long bars from the inside dash bar to the front frame rails and it came with 2 bars extra bars to put in the middle of the to long bars running to the front for extra support which is shown in my pictures I posted under my car on here, I had to modifly my bars just a little but the whole kit really seemed to work out pretty good but if you build your chassis different then it could make it a whole different story. you know how that goes. I guess I just got lucky, or I did my homework right, one or the other. LOL

Badnblown,
How far apart are your frame rails, at the back over the axle, outer edge to outer edge ?
Cheers,
Si
