Looking for a shop in Central Jersey to do an eight point roll bar

Looking for a good shop at a reasonable price. Needs to meet NHRA spec. Anybody know of one? I'm in Trenton, but would travel an hour or so if the shop is good and the price is right.

I called S&W Race Cars.........WOW!!!! Expensive!!!

In no particular order:

TTP can custom bend ya something
Pro-Street Chassis in Chesterfield NJ
Lawrence Engineering in Trenton (Mostly roundy round stuff, but fully capable of the job)
KMF Kasper Machine and Fabrication in Cream Ridge

What did S&W quote ya? I have one of their pre bent kits in my 70 Nova and I did the install, not too bad a job really. Just make sure the final welds are done by someone who is a very good welder.

I don't want to venture a guess at price for fear of stepping on toes, but a custom bent 8 point bar isn't gonna come cheap. But the results should be better than any pre-bent kit you can find. And its your safety at stake, so don't skimp.

TTP would most likely give you the best price since they do all of their bending in house, Lawrence Engineering would most likely cost your first born. LE is full of great guys, but if you don't know them you pay "retail"
Kasper is another big money shop, he was a big timer years ago and he still charges that way.

I would have no problem taking care of you. We build anything from 2-point harness bars to 3/4 chassis/pro mods (You'll see our pro mod chassis debuting in a few months). Everything is completed in 4130N & TIG welded. No mild steel here.
