What is needed:(simpliest form)

*Correct all runs to 29.92 barometer, 60degF, dry air
*Run a bell curve for all of Stock & Super Stock
*Do a bell curve for every engine "family" in Stock & Super Stock
*Establish upper and lower control limits of performance(corrected only)
*Establish a reasonable standard for intake runner ccs.(very bogus and unreasonable to date)
*Establish a reasonable "corrective action" positive and negative
*Have a trained statistical technician for proper recommendations
*Always have a proper representative in charge of all corrective actions.

If we do this we could expect some of the following:
*Establish what engines have a bogus original HP from the factory rating
*Establish what engines have received an unfair advantage due super-ceded parts.
*Establish what engines have unjustified intake runner ccs and other inappropriate specifications
*Establish how to "weight" normally aspirated engines with SC/turbo engines
*Establish the differences in dyno ratings from current HP verses dyno ratings prior to and including 1971.
*Establish what "allowances" like 50 extra cfm, or alum heads does to enhance a combination relative to is prior parts.
*Delineate the difference between an unfair HP and a guy who just is better/spends more than everyone else.

This is high school science! In fact, it probably is junior high school since I haven't been in school for awhile ;-). It can be run on any computer that has Excel or something similar. I am teaching my 10 year old daughter Excel now(along with learning myself....I did it the old way with my 5 cent CPU)

It is amazing what a bit of science can do. I am sure I have left some items out, please elaborate or ask, I will do my best to answer, this is so simple.
