Stocker Crankshaft Heavy Metal

[Adger Smith]

Sorry Bill, but I think you are a little too anal about the rules. Yes, we can all read and like you can quote the rule book. Before bashing someone on being legal or illegal you need to know something about the components they are talking about. By your logic a rod that came in a 305 and was put in a 350 would be illegal when in fact they are the very same. The ONLY difference in a 350 and 305 crank is in the depth and location of the factory balancing holes. That is due to the slight (grams) weight difference in the 350 and 305 pistons. They both come out of the very same casting molds at the foundry. They are the same weight, casting number and dimensions. There is a BIG FAT "0" performance advantge. The only advantage is to the machinest that does the balancing with the approved NHRA component weights. Makes it easier Lighten up! No need insuating or calling a person a cheat!
