No doubt, it sure is ironic. Its funny how life works. But I still wouldn't want to bend the rules just for me. I still have the same opinion as before, no rule changes in Super Stock.

If we have one rule change we might as well make 10. Here, I'll start the list and you can add on. Then when we're done we can present it to NHRA and start our own class away from Super Stock.

1. Titanium valves
2. Any crank you want as long as its stock stroke
3. No limitations on porting as long as you use the correct casting
4. Run the carbs directly inline, we're already 95% there
5. R & P front ends so we can use #6
6. Diapers
7. Determine what the hood scoop should be
8. Dry sump
9. No compression rules, I saved this one for last
10.

I am not smart enough to add on but I think I love it! We both know Jim's bullet was BUILT legal as you have the build sheet and I was impressed that you and your Dad were there for tech. I guess hindsight was to throw some ice on it. .002, Heck, thats nothing. I hope there is an appeal in the works.

PS I leaked the Spyphish and it was perfect. Must be ring chatter, just like Ray said. Thanks

See ya' (as a duck) at the Dutch........
