Joe, Of course, the ring height can be measured with the head off, so what 's NHRA's problem with checking it?
If they go that route, then REAL replacement Stock pistons are at even more of a disadvantage. Another shot at the budget racer, and another rule revision rammed through by the cheaters.
So then what happens? Under weight pistons and rods? Knife edged cranks?
Where does it end?

Fully agree with you Mark! it can be checked easily. I have not seen anyone thrown out by illegal pistons that has been made public by NHRA.

I just pointed to a plausible aftermath with everything that has taken place in the past.
