You're only talking only a few hours of fab work here.
I'm sure what you are saying above is absolutely true for a professional, or at least someone skilled at cage design, removal, modification, installation, etc.
My concern centers around the average racer, or racer wannabe that does not have the skills, experience, tools, or the knowledge of the rules, etc. What with the life saving implications of a cage, the mods needed to this cage will not be trivial. (I can and do weld, but I farm out cage work to pros and it's not cheap.)
The seller is not up on the current SCCA roll cage rules and therefore makes an inaccurate claim in his ad. (OK, I'll contact the seller and recommend he check the current rules with the idea of possibly modifying his write up.)
Best wishes your way!
