There are stud conversions that do not require machining.

You are allowed to drill and tap for screw in studs anyway.

The question would be, if NHRA requires the OEM configuration, what does NHRA consider the configuration of the Olds and Ford 5.0 to be? It's not a shaft mount, by any stretch. But neither is it a stud mount.

I'd suggest anyone considering making changes wait until at least after the PRI Show next week in Orlando, and what ever you decide, get approval from Glendora in writing, and keep it with the car at all times.
