I'm not 100% familiar with NHRA rules. I thought the specs posted were what you were allowed to do, in other words if you built one it could have 12.5:1 compression, I have never seen any mention of this "paper" engine anywhere else. I'd be very interested to find more info on it.
I found the part number by looking it up in the Ford parts catalog. The engine pictured is not the 12.5:1 engine that is in the guide, it is a production Boss engine.
