IHRA Pure Stock Classification

10-28-2014, 05:16 PM

We had the same situation with our 2004 Corvette two years ago. I contacted Mike Baker and he instructed me to find someone at GM that could provide official cam specs. After doing some digging (emails, phone calls, etc.) I found someone at GM to provide them for me. I sent the information to Mike and it got approved.

Interesting side note ... the cam lift that was sent to me for my year was SIGNIFICANTLY less than what is listed as allowable lift in the NHRA guide for that particular year. I had Bullet grind it legal but I should have done it to the other number in hindsight.

Scott, do you remember who it was at GM that you talked to about your camshaft specifications. I am a GM engineer and would like to talk to him about my camshaft.

Does Mark Kent sound right? Forgive me but I'm pulling that out of the air and don't remember off the top of my head. It's been over 3 years and once Bullet ground me the cam I didn't hang on to the email electronically. If that isn't correct I could go through my notebook of receipts and paperwork and see if I happened to print the email which I can't remember if I did or not.
