Roll cages

any advice please . . . . .

I was going to buy a 6 point bolt in cage for the car Im building, with door bars. as the car is for track only Im now thinking it would be better to weld it in (stiffen the shell) and possibly add a few extra diagonal braces.

given that my budget is, to say the least, small, I figured I could buy a prepared part built weld in cage and fit it my self with a few extras for the same cost as a bolt in affair. (quoted £400 by Safetey devices)

am I mad taking this challenge on? should I stick to a bolt in?

the car is a MK1 Cortina GT for historc saloon racing
