2014 FFFFord 429?
 
What is it? Why does it have a SS rating of 450? Why does it have a SS/GT rating of 465? Why does it have NO Stock rating? Why are there NO engine blueprint specs on it? How can it be in the guide without any blueprint specs? I guess that you just make them up as you go?

Billy, You must have made a mistake. You posted this on Classracer. I am sure you meant to e mail your Division Tech Director....:)

I'm surprised it's not rated at 275. LOL

Billy,
It can be list as available engine for the car but with no spec, can't be in competition. An example 1990 ZR1 Corvette, but they made those cars available to the general public, go figure?? I don't know how or why you would have a GT rating on something not yet hitting the track.

It's under 2014 mustang Stock and SuperStock at 465hp but what is the "#DIV/0!" mean?

An error in the spreadsheet formula. If 465hp and 3100 shipping weight are correct, the factor should be 6.67 for a coupe, so natural AA car.

@ 3100 lbs, that's 75 lbs less than the 2014 302 Coyote CJ.

Wonder if that 429 is a 351W pushrod based engine ?
I don't think it would be a 6.2 Modular based engine due to the reduced shipping weight.

Looks like an error, the #DIV/0! comes up when doing spreadsheets, when you miss an entry or delete one.
