Jeff AND Randall I share the same thoughts, could never understand all the geometric modifications (valve train) that started in the 90s (maybe earlier) knowing the writing was on the wall. I still remember many years ago, back when the rules were the same for ALL ss cars, overhearing Bob DeYoung MF Cloy Fitzgerald after getting bounced over bolt height on the hood scoop when they were still (honestly) checking bodies. And not trying to poke the beehive Jeff, but I remember one time long ago you and I were talking about how engine swaps between your guys Dart & the A990 car wasn't possible due to matched cyl heads to headers....I kinda hung up the phone with clammy hands wondering if you were subliminally telling me the ports were moved around a bit!!!! I still do respect swamp voodoo always make things appear different than what they really are.
