Wendell, I don't understand why you're getting so hostile with me. The rules were already written. You were trying to get NHRA to re-write the rules. Like you said, the rule WAS going to say..... There was no need for changes.

You're just pissed because you thought for sure we were moving our intake flanges and we weren't. It originally had nothing to do with how far they were machined. It was about the location of the holes, which I completely agree with. I can prove that because you were complaining how your valve covers should bolt onto anyone's heads. Bring them over, I'll happily bolt them on because our threads are still there. I can't say the same for others. They are busted off completely.

If you ask me, you're the guy that brought on this whole mess in the first place. It all started at the Englishtown National where every AH car had to remove their valve covers. And somehow you were the only guy that knew what they were checking for. You gave yourself away.
