Actually it's a solid 100 lbs. Might just see quite a few for sale after that hit.

I could be wrong, but the Firebird can probably just change their hood (like a few years back) and avoid the HP increase.

The flat hood was already 382, and the ram air was 369, now they will be the same.

Edit: Cooter is right, the ram air will be 381, not 382

new hp will be 381 for ram air now in A they get to run with the 428 cobra jet rated at 380. Should be a good race! LS1 should be real competitive in BB!

I suspect that some racers just don't care to protect their engine combination, do they?

Looks to me it's been fairly well protected for over a decade...
