Thank you all for your comments and directions. Will have more pictures soon.

That is one HUGE rollbar!!
Dan Cragin with DC Performance had this installed for me. I really like it myself, your comment is taken in the spirit it was sent, as an honest opinion differing from my own, thank you. It will fit under the soft top and under an aftermarket hardtop. It will also pass tech at NHRA sanctioned events and the Silver State races, where I plan to attend next year with my son and his outlaw class cars (NHRA not Silver State).
If it is too HUGE let me assure you it is not huge enough for my wife or son. I turned 60 yesterday and they seem to want me around for a while longer. I stopped riding bikes 6 months ago; HD, Choppers, Hyabusa being sold tomorrow; and as long as it has four wheels, I can get anything I like and can afford. Fortunately for me this includes Ferraris, Lambos and even a Veyron if that's what I want, getting on the list to buy at MSRP-well that's another story. I only plan to race "this Viper", not anything else, all my other cars are drivers. So for me to provide peace of mind to the family; I think the rollbar is bitchin', Dan did a terrific job.
Next Dan is lowering it, using KW's, installing Corsa Tracks and Random Techs, installing an aluminum flywheel, skip shift eliminator, modified shifter, chin guard, shift light, Air/fuel wideband monitor by AEM and idiot light for racing probably using a second shift light, and Paxton SC. All the parts selected for installation were chosen by both Dan Cragin and JonB at Partsrack. Jon and Dan are, in my opinion, some of the best guys I have ever worked with on one of my auto or bike related projects. You cannot go wrong giving them your business...enough with the advertising.....
When the motor does crater, the rebuild is going to be *****. Note bitchin' and ***** are old guys language for sick, ???
