Jim, thats why I'm questioning it. .. I thought they originaly said any valve angle , then later said the original angle had to be retained as it had been previously. ....Since the car was parked this year, I may have missed it, but I plan to have it back out next year, and don't want to miss a change like that. ....I'll have to go back and re read the revisions. ....Tom

Damn, old age is creeping up on me. .....Jim you are correct, the revision was made last December. ......Had I been working on my AMX instead of the Vette, and Matyas' various projects , I would have known that! ....Now I can buy new valves to go with the pushrods and guideplates. .....,and another pair of SFI pants for the Stocker! ......Tom

Does anyone know the situation on engine diapers for S & SS?

[art leong]

On the SS/EX are they going to allow imports? Or will it be cars in the classification guide only (such as a Neon, Cobalt etc)?

Maybe I'm a ****tard, but I cannot find an accepted list of Fuel Injection systems on NHRA.com. ..I may just be looking too hard, but the website is getting more and more difficult to navigate..

"Electronic Fuel Injection: In classes where allowed, must be closed, OEM-type system; i.e., may monitor only engine functions. Monitoring of vehicle performance criteria, wheel speed, driveshaft speed, vehicle acceleration, etc. by fuel-injection system prohibited. All aftermarket OEM-type electronic fuel injection must be NHRA-accepted. A current list of NHRA-accepted electronic-fuel-injection systems is available on NHRA.com."

I seem to get annoyed when I get on their site, too much useless info on a cluttered homepage...I have to find what I want there quickly or else it makes me angry and I itch like an allergy or something...can someone send me the link please. Thanks. Have a great day, much love!

It's just as bad to get hit by something going fast, as it is to crash in something going fast.

Yes. Any car that ran in the All-Motor Class in the NHRA Compact Series, front-wheel drive, can run in the class.
