I would highly recommend getting more of the Stock guys/gals to get more seat time racing PRO ET (Summit Series), or the No-Box class on Non-Summit weekends. I know Brad and Scott Burton ran the Summit series at home in D5 as I saw them at the ET Finals in Topeka two years ago.
There is no replacement for seat time. The practice tree only goes so far.
I personally know Matt Harris who raced his Cutlas Comp car with a bracket engine in 2009/2010 until the Grand Am was rebuilt, and Shaun Vincent bracket raced his "new" S/S Trans Am a handful of times over the last year few years with a bracket engine, and last year with their SS engine. Both did very well.
The only draw back for S/S in Pro ET is, technically, the car cannot have a data acquisition computer connected while racing.
