How does a 428W crate motor run regular SS?
 
Just wondering how these new engine combos run in regular SS classes and not GT. I don't think the 2010 Mustang came from the Ford store with a 428 or 352 crate motors?

Well they must have! They can run Stock!

They run B/SA (428) and E/SA (352) in Stock also. Welcome to modern 2011 Class Racing. A far cry from the good old days, sadly.

They're in the Stock Car Classification Guide. Welcome to the "new" class racing from NHRA. :rolleyes:

Jeff I'm more impressed with your performance than a new car. No computer, turbo, blower, EFI, etc.

You may recall Calvert's Mustang is the 428....the one his son ran at Pomona. I agree with Ed's assessment though...Jeff's car is very impressive.

Give John Calvert a call and he can give you all the details because he has one.

If you are wondering how this can happen, just look at which vehicle is the official vehicle of the NHRA?

Thanks ED, If I could just keep a tranny in it for more than four runs in a row I might be able to race. I belive now I do remember a posting from NHRA about those combos a year or so ago. Senior moment I guess. Still thought they had to produce so many in a year to be legal. Can't keep up with all this new stuff.
