2015 Rules

[Jeff Teuton]

Ed, the 360 appeared in 71 I think. Then about 76.348 revisions with heads, pistons, manifolds, and god knows what else mostly for emissions, then the lifters were changed to rollers mid 80, then on and on then the magnum with efi cause it absolutely won't pass emissions, then the DP motor. And lot's in between. It ain't new by any means. It's still the same basic lower motor from 71 with knock off Edlebrock heads and a single plane manifold (in stock). Super Stock of course is a little different. To give you an idea, the pistons are 100 grams heavier than a 360 Magnum truck motor. Now for the Chevies, when you need something you can go to Wal Mart, CVS, Target, Cosco and get ready to race heads, and any other part you need at reduced prices and available at midnight. With all the research and devleopment and parts availablity, your car should go 8.90's and you should be kickin the DP's tail (tale). You need to work on that thing. And what is the wheelbase on your car? 90 inches. These DP's are so long they are articulated in the middle. Did yall know emissions actually started with the 68 model cars. It didn't come back around till EFI and total engine and car management. Just you history lesson for today. Test next Friday.

Lmao!
Next Friday? I had better study.

Larry, I don't see any way they will put the indexes where they belong. They are too indebted to the auto mfgrs, their race sponsors.

it will be interesting to see how they do the stick vs automatic deal in these new classes for sure, bet you will be seeing more sticks in these cars
