I don't think NHRA will let Yenko cars in (meaning Yenko cars by themselves, not Yenko cars that are also COPO cars). NHRA does NOT look at Yenko cars like they do Shelby cars, even though they should be comparable.

Any idea what the COPO is for the 70 LT-1 Nova? Was the COPO number made available to the public, and not JUST Yenko (in the U.S.)?

I heard the other day that since there were supposedly some NASCAR Hemi cars that were not sold to the public that are allowed, they may let the 67 L-88 Corvette back in.
