Can my structure be 9.99 legal?

I have a full tube front end and full cage with everything tied in. (car is in the construction phase)

 

My problem is I hate how the halo bar and front down tubes turned out (S&W calls it the rollbar to cage conversion kit) and I am disappionted with how they tied into the front sub frame supports that go though the firewall. The conversion part was a pain to install and ended up looking like crap.

 

I want to cut that section out (Conversion kit) and weld the front sub frame supports to the firewall.

 

So my question is with a tube front end attached to the firewall and an 8 point rollbar (S&W) would I be legal for 9.99-10.0 by NHRA standards.

 

For the sub frame support tubes, can I cut them short to reinforce the firewall and weld in the length of tube I cut out. Would it be safe to do so?

 

I know the main hoop, halo bar and probally the windshield down tubes you have to keep intact for saftey, would the frame support tubes fall into this catagory?

 

Thanks,

Mark
