You use to have to run original type valves,cam specs, pistons,etc. After cam rules were changed

retired and the new ones did not have the knowledge to check cars.
When money became the predominate interest of Glendora in the late 80's they started letting
too many changes take the stock out of stock because it took money to train and keep
people who could check engines,etc. properly.
That's my 2 cents worth and I'm sticking to it. lol

I will "drink" to those statements. Most on here wont ever know what its like to be DQ'ed for 2 lbs to much valve spring pressure or 2 more degrees of duration or overlap...lol. IHRA still has those rules (pure stock) but not enough good tech guys who have the knowledge to check the cars from top to bottom.
