Hi Graham, as Ron already pointed out correctly, the standard with all Kits is the 4 point rollbar you have on yours. The optional 6 point rollcage has the main hoop inside the passenger compartment in front of the firewall. TOM

That is the standard roll bar that comes from RCR. I have that in my car (although I have since added the front section to it to make it a full roll cage)
I have a tall deck engine in my car and the distributor required a small notch to clear. It shouldn't be an issue with a 302 based engine though.

Looks nice, Alex. I use to work in a " cultured marble" shop, we used a power buffer to polish the panels and sinks we made. They could be used aggressively enough to "polish" through the gel-coat, and particularly if we didn't empty the moisture separator at the compressor and got some water droplets into the gel-coat, but we were generally very pleased with the finishes we got.
I've seen ...

Oh, so that's why I have so many spare parts!
Tom,
Unless you intend to track your SL-C there is really no need to upgrade. The standard rotors have plenty of surface area for a 2400lb car for the usual brisk driving for which the car is intended. (Of course, I upgraded to the Brembos ).

It's a good idea to do as you and use the charts/tables whenever possible.

If you are not running AC, you could do what I am doing, which is to place the battery, ISIS master cell and front powercell (and some other things) where the AC evap would normally be, behind the rad. RCR makes a great FG shield for this, or you could fab one up yourself if needed.
This approach is better for weight distribution, and uses the space behind the rad that would otherwise be ...
