In the last few years, another racer is running a similar combination to mine, but it has a different HP rating. YET every single aspect of the parts in numerics are the same. From head casting, to throttle body, to piston size. HP rating difference from one car to the other is 50 factory HP!!!!!!!! No clue what their car weighs compared to mine, and really doesnt matter. We both are doing our own thing. Ironically, we run about the same. A pair of one off combinations, even though every aspect of the motors are identical. If one of us had something funny going on, Im sure the barn would tell the tale very quickly. Many years ago, my stuff was used for measurements cause I was the only game around.

You take a 305 chebbie, where everyone has on in Stock eliminator............ and it fits how many different cars with how many different castings to mix and match............Id say its a whole lot less easy to find someone who is doing something completely out of whack.

Or like earlier said Duster who has been MIA now. Class racing with a big inch bracket motor and getting whacked............. Yeah, we dont like that. Mistakes are one thing........ Like a well known Hemi racer installing the wrong motor for Indy and wondering why he was slower than the other AA cars at the time........... blew it up and found out what motor was in the car............ Didnt like 0wt oil....... OOPS. He laughed and left the track with a short suspension from what I recall....

But then again, a 9" radial is still not legal, right?

When did that all happen ?
