2) Use a inspection camera and check piston for dish, flat top or dome to match spec.

3) Quick look at the carb or throttle body.

4) Check valve lift on stockers.

This would take about a hour or so and easy.
Far from perfect but better than what we have now which is nothing.
I would think any funny business would not be the top qualifiers but further down the qualifying sheet. Joe racer hurts his 327 and has a 383 short block sitting there from the bracket car and thinks why not just to finish the year. Nobody checks anyway.
Do a few cars at every div. race.
May help maintain the integrity of the classes.
1, Big cubes aren't what to look for here.

2, Can't tell where the top ring groove is, or assembly weights, or crank weight, shape.

3, Nothing there on carbed cars. EFI throttle bodies? ...I'll give you that one

4 Some cars still use some form of hydraulics.

Cars down the list? Subject for another day.
I mentioned exceptionally fast cars beating others in class
