If you can get NHRA to correct the Stock Car Classification Guide, the 429/375 rated at 360 would be a very good combo. It would a natural E car if you claim it as a Cobra Torino. The Problem is they don’t show the 375 engine. Having owned two of these cars, I know they came with the 429/375. What makes this a better engine than the 370 is the 375 gets a solid cam and 780 Holley. If you can get NHRA to correct the guide it would be an easy 8 under combo. The 71 Mustang with a 429/375 is rated at 360. This engine was available in all Torino’s, Mustangs, Montego’s and Cougar’s in 1971.
