Horsepower Reduction?

MikeMoller · 10-01-2019, 05:45 PM

You have to request HP off a given combo. If it qualifies for a reduction, that specific combo will get reduced. Similar platform combo's may also get reduced, but only that specific year. I had my 1978 Nova 305/145 reduced, and they reduced the Buick, Pontiac, and Oldsmobile versions of the Nova with the exact same motor as well, but only in 1978. No other cars/body styles were reduced. There are criteria for minimum, maximums, and average et's for the combo that determine eligibility for reduction and how much. Those are spelled out in the NHRAracer website under the Automatic Horsepower Factor System link.

Fill out the form, never hurts to ask!
