you do need the d bars, also you need the lower bars that run from the main hoop at the bottom to the exhaust tunnel. I can get specs on the bars if you need them...We just got done on ballards cage and it was done to the latest spec...

When I got my cage inspected, wouldn't they have told me I needed these bars so it would pass? It was inspected by a NHRA division 1 tech inspector on Feb 10 2006 and passed with out these d bars. When did the latest spec come out?
