Cvengros is utterly useless and ignorant. I exchanged five emails with him the other year and he positively refused to even ACKNOWLEDGE the question that I repeatedly asked him. He talked all around it, and half of what he said was wrong. It was absolutely unbelievable. I would have fired him on the spot. He is one of the reasons why I quit running NHRA.

Greg, ain't it great? The "Stock Eliminator Welfare Recipient" is telling you to get to work!

Agreed! If people want to play the game as NHRA allows, fine, play the game, but to defend such things AND have the audacity to get indignant about it is ridiculous. Telling Greg Hill to "get to work" is height of audacity and ridiculousness!

When I ran Super Stock, I ran the obscenely underfactored 275HP 5.9L DragPak. I did it because it was legal, and it's what I could afford. But I never went around telling people how hard I worked or how fair the HP factor was. Quite the opposite!

NHRA told me (in writing) that the LD340 intake was not legal on a 1971 340 only on 340's pre '71.

Don't lecture me about working on our stuff. Also 25 or 30 camshafts over the years. Give us a set of new heads and we will play.

I feel ya greg, the mopar boys have got a lot of gifts in the last few yrs, manifolds on the 340 and 273 plus 318 heads for the 273, aluminum heads for the 340 and 383 without the hp penalty the big chevy has to pay and sponge soft factoring 383 the
same as 350 chev 426 street wedge very similar to 350 chev. Its not that they are
that fast they are just in the wrong class!! lol

how much hp are given to the combos that can get a beefier block that other combos will never see, shall we eliminate those as well?
