I am a Mopar fan and I want to see the Cobra Jets compete.

Ford probably would have been better off if in the beginning they had designed a push rod engine more similar to the Chevys and the Dodges. But that horse is out of the barn (pun intended).

It is a no win situation for NHRA, they either pull the Fords back or they will win everything.

From what I understand every time there are pulley changes cam, converter and gearing changes need to be made to get the last .001 out of the new combination which is a big burden on the racers.

I wish I knew the answer but I do not.
