Important if you run D-H/S or SA

[Billy Nees]

Well, as of this morning, the LD340 has been removed from the guide for the 71 car. Just 68-69-70 to go NHRA!

Billy, so it was you there at the beach. And I did not flip you the bird, I used all five fingers as a group gesture. No, I am not mad at you for what ever reason people are mad at you for. You mentioned a manifold for the 273, I do not have it as I prefer good old fashioned iron. (plus I didn't know about it).

Being that you are good at removing certain components from the "guide" and considered a leading pioneer guru of independent thinking, what is the chance of you getting rid of the FFFords that are in U/SA.

Now, let's get back to the meat of this thread, what about that beer.

U/SA removing brain cells for over a decade

As of this morning, NHRA has taken delivery of 200 Teenie Tiny Little Bitty 3" total height Walley's for Pomona as participation tropheys. Everybody who shows up gets one. Eliminations have been cancelled. Also anyone who qualifies below the index will automatically lose two items previously approved by NHRA such as reinstall the back seat, reinstall stock brakes, reinstall factory radiator, reinstall camshaft with factory casting number, install real hydraulic lifters with correct travel (sorry Cliff Sherman), return to 4 " Atlas Bucron tires (if you don't know about those, you are too young to post anyway) on factory steel wheels (must remove hubcaps), remove roll cage, reinstall factory exhaust manifolds and exhaust system with stock mufflers only, and I will allow my fascinated friends to continue the saga. We might as well get everything at once.

Well Jeff, it appears that the only things I need to do now are to flip rear seat back up, get steel rims and Atlas tires, put exhaust manifolds & mufflers on, and I'm good.

About those participation trophies, are they the same color as the big ones, or are they that cheap plastic crap. I'll bet you next year they give out cheap plastic medallions instead of trophies to cut expenses.

Now, what about that beer?

U/SA is there a quota

Amazing thread, will it make it to 20 pages???? I love stock and super stock, but stock hasn't been "stock" for WAY TOO LONG. Don't hate me, just my 2 cents.

I'm good with all of this Jeff but only if I'm allowed to keep my Sun tach and Spark-o-Matic shifter which replaced my reinforced column shift .

On another note I must ask Billy what he accomplished - this thread is a week old and getting to a couple of hundred posts and you got a manifold taken out of the guide .But did it matter as many have written that none of the iron manifolds are 'stock' anymore .Billy - I'm as old school as anyone but look at the big picture as the horse left the barn many,many moons ago .....

And all of those Chrysler "lobbyists" out there are trying to replace it with a zebra.

Spoke to NHRA today. They have agreed to allow Traction Masters to prevent "violent and uncontrolled rear leaf spring windup" as per rule pages 1957, however Cal Tracs are gone. Sorry. If you don't know what Traction Masters are, you are too young anyway.

Power perceived, is power archived

Keep trying to change the subject boys! The subject is LD340 intakes in Stock Eliminator. That's S.T.O.C.K. E.L.I.M.I.N.A.T.O.R.
Not Comp or SS or ET-2.
Come on Chrysler guys, you can say it! S.T.O.C.K. E.L.I.M.I.N.A.T.O.R.
