Stock Class Chassis Rules
Have the chassis rules been loosened in stock Elim. I see a number of cars, especially 66-67 Novas, with tires I am sure do not fit in stock wheel wells?

Re: Stock Class Chassis Rules
Ingenuity and a BFH...(Big Fricken Hammer) , was what it took to fit those 9 X 30 slicks on a 66 nova....that and the fact that I have never seen a tech man measure a rear end housing in a Stocker.....LOL....

Re: Stock Class Chassis Rules
Rules haven't changed. Enforcement has.
Yes ,you can still trim the inner flange away. You can legally stretch the front and rear opening..(safety, don't ya' know), and as MJ said, some judicious work with the Ford tool on the wheel wells, has been going on forever. But I have to say , some of the stuff I've seen lately, back a generation ago, Marty Barrett, Greg X, or Wesley would have bounced you so hard and fast, your azz would be on fire. So, welcome to the new NHRA and Bracket II.

Re: Stock Class Chassis Rules
Had a newly built SS/GA Camaro bounced at Columbus, first year for big tires. Didn’t like the way Mike Fons installed rear frame rails. The next year the rule book showed a drawing of the same method he used.
