What Stock rules would you change?

The genie... she ain't going back in the bottle and the AHFS has already been hard at work adjusting indexes with cars running ported heads. 25% of the cost for a competitive set of heads is for cover up work so lets just get it over with. As long as the heads CC properly and have the correct valves as outlined in the guide, they pass. No more over looking the obvious and checking will be a go-no go based on CCing properly.

The classes have been refactored with ported heads. Do we go back to the original factors and start over?

No Todd, as a matter-of-fact, We don't! Leave the factors in place where they are and shame on the A-Holes with the ported heads who were responsible for getting those combos factored!

Any size rear view mirror, lol

Back to just ONE battery, front or rear. Your choice.

Raise the index 2 tenth's and that will make the AHFS work great !!!! Lol.....

With so many rumors of a few racers using manipulated ignition control boxes to control elapsed times, it may be time for NHRA to work with MSD to have certified ignition control boxes that can't be tampered with or can be easily checked by NHRA tech officials to determine if it's been illegally altered. I know this will be a challenge for the modern EFI cars, but something needs to be done. Maybe someone more knowledgeable than me has a better solution.

That is one of the best ideas I have heard all year!!!!

Sometimes it can be harder to control a lifter on a smaller lobe then a larger one. Just food for thought. Roller lifters should be rebuilt or thrown away after some time. You don’t really have that issue with solids.
