Which is it, Is it fast enough to get hp or is nobody running one because they can’t make them work? I did go off of the 390 factor, and just realized that is the Stick version, so your right it’s at 405 in auto. So how did it get to 405 in auto, but stay 390 in stick? I really have no clue, but I can only assume somebody went fast with one.

Larry decided to call out a combo that in no way needs more Hp, and did it under the guidelines of fixing the ahfs. There are about 150 other combo's out there that need it before this one, but he chose the 396 because it barely went over a second under in two very rare and unfair circumstances by two really, really fast 396's. He did it only because it’s self serving. If he is going to uselessly call out a combo, I'm going to call him on it. Sorry?

Gary OK so we do agree on one thing that Larry isn't old, tall maybe but not old!!! The difference in factored HP is because I can only think of one guy out in div#7 I think his name is Watts running a stick, so that combo hasn't really been flogged like the automatics have.I never said that your combo needed a hit, but I would love it if they dropped me some.I run enough of you [guys/396/375] and know that I don't have enough of JUNK under my hood!!!

what other engines can go in your cars besides the 440 6 pack? Fletcher changed engines in his stocker , so couldn't you guys do the same?

Hey Clutch I was just thinking about how heavy you say you run your car, just off the top of my head I'd say that you're carrying too much weight, maybe almost 400 pounds with steel head or 300 pounds with aluminum head, IMAGINE that, how much faster you could be!!! OH you want to know about weighing 4000 lbs look me up I'll tell you all about it, oh ya don't get caught at the scale weighing that, they may bump you down a class.

I kind of missed it but is the rule about weighing heavy into the next class down puts you into that class being enforced this year?

Hope so.

I know of one racer that had to remove weight at Atco this past weekend. NHRA Tech also logged each car with number, class, factored hp, & weight into a data base.

Good deal!
