They should not have put the 12 HP on. That whole deal was done wrong, and NHRA has finally made it right.

I'm not real well up on the Olds, I've got a friend who has a couple, and he doesn't race them because they aren't fast enough. I'd say the Olds probably does need some HP off, maybe if enough proof is shown to the right people it might get it, I hope so.
