The only pre 1960 cars in the tech guide are Cadillac and Chevrolet. The 57s are natural 11-20 pound cars. It will be interesting to see how much these combos will pick up with all the superceded heads,carbs,manifolds and aftermarket trans, corporate rears, etc. Let the fun begin.

Re: AAF/S.... uh, why don't they create some realistic weight breaks for the FWD classes instead of tacking onto the top? It's not like there are no letters in the alphabet past "E". :rolleyes: While the "big cars" fight full-pound weight breaks because they'd have to "carry so much weight", what about the weight difference between DF/S and EF/S... 2,241 vs 2,895. 650LBS? SERIOUSLY?!
I couldn't agree with you more Michael!!!

About the block rule: a NHRA approved aftermarket cylinder blocks" for s/ss
That is good news for the V-6 guys. Since GM has quit casting the Bowtie V-6 block there is a shortage. Brian Browell has stepped up and had blocks & heads cast and NHRA approved. That just about seals the deal on the new V-6 blocks for Comp through Stock. Since we can't count on GM or other MFG's to continue to supply parts I think it is the next step for NHRA to modify the rules to help us keep racing.

Blossom digs out the old AT/SA Syclone and puts 30lb of boost in with an aftermarket alum block......

I don't believe that the 55 and up rule will benefit anyone except the tri-five Chevy's. What other cars would be competitive, what other brands are being run in SS that might be able to compete as a stocker?

No Mopars, Pontiacs, Buicks, Olds, Fords or other brands are being run in SS, so who does it help?

Re: 2011 Stock/Super Stock Rule Changes
 
I'm wondering how an LS4 wwith a factory rating of 303 HP in an Impala would compare to the GMC turbo charger v6. Impala shows a 3711# shipping weight or 12.25 # per hp. Don't see how u ccould get to the 11.00# or around 3350#. Maybe Chevy has a secret superceded body to get the weight out. Does anyone know if the LS4 aluminum block motor in the 2006 up Impala is the same 5.3 that was in the SSR?
