Is anyone aware of any type of pre fabbed roll cages that require to be welded in for the CSM? Is there any option? Or just complete custom build.

Fox body Mustang cages work great in 1gs and are inexpensive from Jegs. Your best bet would be to get measurements for the main hoop and go from there.

Never seen that avenue available before, so this is good news.

First thought was the Fox body cages as mentioned above.

Yea I know. They have that section available as well. Basically It seems you have potential for a full weld in kit CSM specific with them :o

To get the best fitting cage a custom made one is the way to go, imo. But I'm kind of spoiled there a ton of local shops around me where I can get one done.

I used a universal mustang kit. I had to cut and notch every bar anyway. So it fit like wanted . There was more than enough material to be tailored to your liking.
