superstock hemi heads

Thats exactly the response I would expect from a head porter, the only ones to gain anything in this. I like to figure where the chips will fall before someone knocks the pile over

As Jeff Teuton has stated, NHRA has not enforced this rule for too long. You can't tell everyone running RB, CW, MCH or VED heads that they are illegal now. You need new heads. This is why I tried to difuse this fire before it escalated into this. If your VC threads are cut into on the intake side, your sh!ts illegal…

I know someone with 2 AH cars, selling 4 AH engines. Suddenly all your sh!ts illegal! And it goes past AH. I know of a fast SS/DA car out in washington state. Bam- your sh!ts illegal. Spend $20k+ per engine to add .020 to .125" to the intake face. And as far as the valvetrain stabilizer, CW already had it figured what he needs to do to move those internal. Just send $

The other problem is where would all the new castings come from for all the heads to be replaced. Thats alot of heads. I have 3 sets of castings new in boxes. Maybe I am wrong with my $20k cyl head legalizing. What r new castings worth now? $$$.

And as stated earlier, my SS/DA stuff is legal to the rules. I have 4 sets VED (the most conservative of the bunch) and one set of RB Oval in my shop, so I kind of have a stake in this and something to lose/gain also. The rule needs to be addressed and we all move on I agree. Telling everyone suddenly the parts you have been running for the last five to ten years is now illegal is not the answer. Can you say Class Killer…

On this Thanksgiving Day I am very thankful for SS/AH and dont want to see it die a slow agonizing death. I just hope NHRA agrees
