Easy way to help AHFS work - Page 4

Billy,
If you're implying that Steve Wann's '62 combo is soft, why? I only ask because nobody before him was able to make a 413 fall out of a tree. John's '64 car is very fast but with the AA/SA 10.70 index I don't believe he can run a .40. Did I miss someone?

I maybe wrong but to my recollection the AHFS was in place the year the ‘62 413/420 went to 405 and no one went down the track in one that year. I believe it was a stroke of the pen that got it down to 405 although the rules were in place. I also believe the the ‘70 350/360 now at 325 received the the same loving care. 12/19/02 for both on reduction date. I do not know if the Camaro 350/360 made any runs that year.
I could be wrong!

I didn't say anything about MAX wedge.

It's funny how that works.......................sometimes.

Billy, You ignorant slut. In Mopar land if you refer to a car as a Wedge it is immediately associated with the connotation MAX!
Also if you're referring to a D4 426 Street Wedge getting a HP reduction a few years ago oddly I agree it was misguided. Maybe the 383 needs a few HP too.
How's that for honesty?
I now need to say a prayer of forgiveness to the Mopar God.
