Default Bullet Fabrications or Steen Chassis.. who should i go with for roll cage?

The bergenholtz brothers recommended me to go to Bullet Fab for roll cage work, for all these years that i have watched them race i kind have trust these brothers....... but i also got reffered by JoJo to go to Steen chasis.. any opinions would be greatly aprreciated. keep in mind this is still a street car..also which one would be more affordable..

I don't think you can really go wrong with either. I've seen work from both of them and they both looked very good. I don't know about price though...

Yet another vote for Steen Chassis. Top notch work and he really helped me out by pushing my car up and getting it done in time to make it to Pomona in October.

Steen does some good work, from Leslie Durst to Jojo. I dont think you can go wrong with anyone of those mentioned above.

As Tony said you really can't go wrong with either one, but I would suggest Steen Chassis the work I have seen so far when they didnt have to fix someone else's mistakes have been great.

Hey Tyler H. nice car.. How's that motor... Learn how to shift.. haha

Steen is doing a road racing car for us and we've been very pleased with his work to date. The car has not been easy but he's made it work.

Unfortunately I don't have any pricing info.
But in my unbiased (Cough,Cough) opinion Gary @ Steen Chassis does excellent work. Every car he does comes out of there looking beautiful.

If you need more info check out his website at :

I really like Bullet. He has been around for years, but is very selective on who he does chassi's for. We trust his cage to keep Ed safe and I would trust him with my life, in fact I may have to.......hehehe

no offense here but those rear bars seem to be a bit of a design flaw, why did you decide to have them placed like that, or was it primarily an aesthetics thing?

i agree that is a wack cage. how did this guy work for willie? willie would die before he'd put bends like that in his bars.

Im guessing he did it that way to clear the back seats and then the guy took his back seats out so it looks weird...cause yeah, id go for straight bars my self.

He definately knows his NHRA rules. My car has been nine sec NHRA certified since the beginning of this season (all work done by Gary) . I'm going to guess the bars on that cage in the rear are like that because of back seats as well....
