Just remember a 6 point bar is bacisally designed to protect you, not to streghten the frame. If you want to stregthen the car, you need to go from bars to a cage (10-12 point) and tie in the front and rear subframes. But, a bar will help some, although if you have swing outs it's not as strong either.

If you're not sure about welding it in then you need to get an NHRA rule book which details the size and thinkness of the mounting plates, welds etc so the car meets the rules.
