Jeff,
You can also use the NASA Cage regs. I believe most of their reg lifted directly from SCCA. The advantage to NASA regs is that they are avalible on-line by download from the Nasaproracing website for free. Not everyone has access to SCCA rules no wants to buy them for a what if.

Actually you can tie the cage to the chassis even in production classes: I have an email from Lance Weeks verifying that it is ok to tab to the A pillar. It's probably a great idea: I bought my car with a cage lightly tabbed to the door frame, and it had broken. Proof positive that there is a lot of movement between the cage and bodywork.

Jeff,
Good idea. I've been looking at the SCCA specs for the last couple of days.
M785 is right, it's a bit of a hassle to get your hands on them. A buddy lent me his SCCA GCR book to me.
I'm not sure, but I don't think the IT cage specs will allow me to penetrate the firewall, and I surely want to.
The guy doing my cage used to build desert race trucks. Now he rides mt. bikes with me. He's got a tubular cromoly frame that he built for a full blown coporate-sponsored Baja 1000 truck that the plug got pulled at the last minute. It's beautiful. Yes, we'll be using cromoly.
Brandon,
Thanks for the update. The cars pictured on VehicleCraft's websight have a lot of tying into the pillars going on.
