Jeremy,
Have you ever raced at an event where you took your shoe polish and predicted what your car will run?
If so,you have BRACKET RACED!
Also,I believe you race a 340 engine.I apologize if that is not correct.Years ago,those cars didn't run very fast at all.In the last few years,everyone of them seems to be well into the 10 second zone.
How did they pick up all of this et?
I'm thinking the heads are not Stock for one thing.Another is that the replacement piston that is accepted is not really made to the same specifications as the Stock Piston.This allows the combination to take full advantage of the "new cam rules" from years ago.
Clearly,these items have helped improve the performance of the 340 cars among other things.The whole point of this thread has been discussing AHFS.The horsepower needs to be adjusted on the 340 because of these improvements.Thanks.
