8.50 Cage, 1970-1981 Camaro

Precision Designed. CNC Fabricated. Custom Fit, Ready for You to Build.

Unlike universal cage kits, our HRS 8.50 roll cage kit is designed for 1970–1981 Chevrolet Camaro using 3D scans of actual vehicles and precision CAD engineering. Each tube is CNC-bent, notched and etched to help you achieve a custom-quality fit without starting from scratch. Choose from 4130 chromoly or DOM steel.

Certification & Fitment

Designed for drag racing applications requiring an 8.50 roll cage. Final eligibility and certification depend on the completed installation, vehicle configuration, applicable racing rules and inspection. Selecting a Roll Cage can help you choose the appropriate cage for your build.

Important Installation Information

A-pillar bars route through the dash, with a close fit to the roof, A-pillars and doors. The cage is assembled in the vehicle and may be lowered slightly for welding access if access holes are made beneath the floor plates. All vehicle-specific fitting, preparation and final welding are the installer's responsibility.

A kit manual is emailed when the order ships.

Standard Options

• We etch the saddle marks into the tubes to show where they land, no measuring! This saves you valuable time fitting the assembly together.
• We also etch a mark in the middle of the main hoop to quickly center it to your chassis.
• Each tube has a specific part number etched in it so you can quickly locate it in your instructions.
• Main hoop, roof bar and optional roof diagonal come “rolled” for a natural fit to the roof line.
• 1-piece A-Pillar bars make it easier to assemble and saves on welding.

Preparation & Additional Options

• Standard Kit / No Prep: CNC-bent, notched and etched tubing is supplied in its raw, as-cut finish from our tube cutter.

• Fully Prepped Upgrade: Tubes are polished and prepared for welding or paint; saddles are hand barrel sanded, tube interiors are sanded near the weld zones, and outer edges are deburred.
