Careful. Thats a 1970 Torino with 68 and 69 heads allowed. This is a 1971.

EDIT: Always start with the NHRA Stock Car Classification Guide. If its not there you should not build it for class racing. The Class Racer reference site is based on NHRA info, but is not official. NHRA does not refer to CR when tecing your car.If CR and NHRA dont match, go with NHRA specs.
