That's what the question is on how to get there without it being illegal.

I figured that that would be the case.
So, if I have a set of aluminum heads that are 168 CC's on the intake;
that says that NHAR does not care how it is done as long as it is
"stock in appearance"!
That says to me that NHRA are saying "go at it boys" and see how good
you are!

Right or run it as it is with the 185cc runners. Either way it's technically illegal.

We all make a ton of power, and inspection is easy. (FYI, the pinch cross section on the Dart 185cc heads are smaller than the stock intake manifold cross section) Thus, the heads will be a substantial gain once a good valve job and flowing is completed.

They already have a class where they pour the heads and have stock valve diameter. It's called Super Stock.
Sure glad I decided to quit running Stock. Getting more screwed up every year...
