Moving a "Bracket Car" to SS

FireSale · 03-23-2022, 06:17 PM

Hi. I'm on the mailing list so it's time I get serious about this. I built my car to be SS/CS legal but have only bracket raced it. I ran the bracket side of a few of the Lucas Oil races but never stuck "SS/CS" on the window. Do I need an NHRA certification inspection to do this or just show up for one of the combo races? I broke into the sport as the staff photographer at Milan in Michigan in the '60s. They checked everything back then.

The car:
68 Mustang Coup
Full cage and all safety gear.

302 Dart block
N351 heads (in line valve iron heads-Ford part # for circle track)
750 Holley
Weight was 3200 as a street car with aluminum heads.

Rules for SS/CS
10.5 Lb/CID 3000 min.
366 cid stock displacement max.
Iron heads Inline valves only
750 4bbl carb
1/4 mile index is 10.30
