I heard a story about a prominent Hudson stocker racer convincing NHRA that the jet was available with the twin H when it wasnt. Theres a few of the bath tub Hudsons still running at Bonneville in the vintage production classes in the 140 mph range. Production there refers to the body, anything goes in the motor but max 320 cubes.

Supposedly, the308 is about 6 inches longer than a 202. It won't even fit without firewall modifications.
Hey, that kinda thing never bothered ME , and some of the old timers I know.
