A roll bar is required in any convertible running 13.49 seconds or quicker in the quarter mile, and in other cars beginning at 11.49. The roll bar is accepted in vehicles running as quick as 10.00 second e.t., provided the stock firewall and floorboard is intact, other than for installation of wheel tubs. The rollbar must be constructed of minimum 1 ¾ inch o.d. x .118 inch wall mild steel tubing, or 1 ¾ x .083 chrome moly tubing, and must conform to the following diagram...

If the floor and/or firewall has been modified, then a full roll cage is required beginning at a 10.99 e.t. A full roll cage is required in any vehicle running 9.99 seconds or quicker, and any vehicle running 135 mph or faster (regardless of e.t.). The roll cage must be constructed of minimum 1 5/8 o.d.x .118 mild steel tubing, or 1 5/8 x .083 chrome moly tubing, and must conform to the following diagram...

as for the other turboed v6s like the yellow camaro hes dynoed what like high 400s or low 500s and could only manage a high 11. its not about how much power you have but how you put it to the ground and get down the 1320....

james has been in the game for 10yrs now and knows the ins and outs of the v6s...

back when i was in it i was gonna base my v6 off of the GN cars and go from there

to make a car work, build the car from the back to the front....start w/ building a rear,then drive line then tranny then motor
