1955 Chevrolet Stocker style
 
I'm wanting to build a stocker style 55 Chevrolet. I like the thought and workman ship of the Alf Weibe suspension stuff for the front and rear. Does any one have any info on suspension stuff for this style car, or has anyone on here ever built one? What kind of parts did you use. Thanks for any information.

No answers because Stock is for 1960 and up. You can run SS though.

It will probably read "ANTHING GOES" because if all of the stockers have to be legal there would only be a hand full racing.....lol

Is it possible to see IHRA HP/factors somewhere?

I think your 415 HP Max Wedge (if thats the one you run) was reduced to 405 HP last year on the 63. The 64 is 410 HP. Not all of the NHRA factors cross over. Its been a long time ago but we used to use the old books like the 55 Chevy is 180 HP for the 4 barr in stock and pure stock (Jr. stock) because the 195 HP cam is a corvette only cam and its the NHRA S/S factor. It might require a call to Mike Baker or Danny Waters as he posts on this site to get all or some of them. I cant find it on the IHRA site either anymore. Sorry I cant help much.
