Im in the middle of a 69 camaro build. Hoping for a low 10 sec runner. NHRA states that if ur firewall and floor are stock you only need an 8pt roll bar. Im replacing my floor pan b/c of rust and smoothing the firewall. Does this violate their "stock" definition? Assuming it doesn't does anybody make an 8pt bar with contoured bars that go from the main hoop to thru the rear deck and into the trunk? Instead of going straight from the hoop to the trunk.. can it follow the roof line and then drop down when reaching the rear window?

also if I make the bar in the middle of the main hoop and the bars coming down from the main hoop to my feet detachable does that violate NHRA?

What your discribing does not violate the rules.

What you need are custom bent bars.
That is how I bend mine for guys that want to keep the rear seat.
