Guess if they want to know how fast it will run with no penalty, that's one way to do it. Ain't right, but that's how some play the game.

Some just use the wrong rockers.

Just kidding Jeff!!

Wow, Roy Johnson just ran 10.630 (-1.220) for the #2 spot! That's right behind Eric Merryfield who went 10.586 (-1.264) in the first round...

I'm building one in my shop right now with a 6.1 ,and when I first saw the engine spec sheet ,I thought the 5.7 HP was a misprint! ......90 less HP than a 6.1 with the only real difference being 24 cubic inches. ........It'll take a while but I'll bet the HP ends up near 375. .........Tom

It was a legal run, my bad

Bryan Worner · 06-18-2010, 01:25 PM

If he was light on the scales, he would show as a dq on the qualifying sheet! It must be a legal run since he's shown at the top. Unless a revised q1 comes out, he was good with weight.

GM left out ?.......the package (BIW) is there and so are the crate engines just like FORD and DODGE....they just haven't submitted the engine specs to NHRA yet.......by the way the recommended crate engines are...LS7....ZZ572R....ZZ383....LSX376...LSX454... ..would cover alot of classes.....just a LOT more work than the competition to construct......

Just go to the GM Performance Parts website.....it's all there including the order forms for the dealer to get you the BIW.....just write the check

Yeah, but they don't have the bogus low hp ratings.
