olds 442, I beleive that the edelbrock olds heads use stock style(small block chevy) rocker arm set ups, not the trunions. If I am wrong I apoligize. I sure would like to see it happen tho. GM's rule!

The Edelbrock Olds head uses regular studs and guide plates. However, it would not be a problem at all for Edelbrock to make a run with 5/16-18 threaded rocker bosses to accept factory valvetrain. They did not alter the valve location or angle on the Edelbrock head.

You do not need to run the factory rocker bosses anymore, the rules are already changed to allow guide plates and studs.

Refer to:

Stock Cars

Section 9A

Engine: 1

Page 136 (05/08)

Camshaft/Lifters: Delete last sentences of paragraph and replace with "Larger diameter pushrods permitted. Pushrod guide plates permitted. Cylinder head may be clearenced for larger diameter pushrods."

Yes, but what about rockers? What rockers are legal with studs and guide plates?

Id rather see the LT1 Nova accepted rather than the Roush Mustang. They should let the Yenko/Moton/Dana Cars run AA/SA.

Yep...let me get the popcorn...so, while you are at it, why don't get rid of the Buick GN's and T-Types, and also the 1989 Turbo Firebird, or Mark Yacavone's Turbo 4-banger, or Neil Smedly's previous Turbo Firebird, or the Turbo FWD Dodges...let's also get rid of all the F.I. cars too.

The Roush cars are no more different than the new S/C Shelby Mustang...so, let's also ban them too!!!

Decal on cover of original folder from Yenko Chevrolet...

[Chevy454]

Original option sheet published by Yenko Chevrolet...funny thing is, aside from the "elaborate decals", the optional hood tach, and the emblems, everything else arrived on the cars from Chevrolet, and was straight regular production stuff...as a matter of fact, the 2 LT-1 Novas that went to Canada were equipped exactly the same as the Yenko Deuces, sans the stripes/emblems, and were sold through regular Chevrolet dealers north of the border...

Chevy 454; Please package all of your documentation and send it to me. I will contact GM, provide your info and ask them to apply for the inclusion of the Duece in the SCCG. It must be done this way; (protocal you know.) This sometimes is a slow process but now is a much better time to try than 1970; many things have changed in NHRA regarding this process.

You have alot of anger and you need help. You need to get out more and stop stitting by the computer looking for things to complain about. I dont think there is one thread on this board that you haven't replied to in an "angry" manner. Relax. Classracer is for information and to see whats going on in the world of NHRA/IHRA....Not for internet wars. Crack a cold one and relax brother.

Anger??? No, my responses are not in anger and believe me, I do not need any help...my responses are to narrow minded comments that are made on. subjects..nothing else...now, let's get back to the real subject of the post...
