Not to rehash the same B.S. again; nevertheless, I have seen the documentation sent by Chrysler to NHRA making the parts legal for use. It is the same process used by other OEM's to have parts approved such as the 2 x 4 barrel Shelby's, the higher lift cams, Chevy 283 with a 327 intake, etc...

Again, please edify me why AMC's are different and why the same rules don't apply?
Same rules should apply. Unfortunately over the years a lot of bogus stuff has managed to slip thru, sometimes with the "cooperation" of the factory guys. The problem the AMC guys face is there small numbers, less people making noise.
Group 19 3310 Holley on the Pacer, think that should be legal?

Not for stock, but it would be fair for super stock since the motor is @ 160 anyway.......I would love to see that for the Gremlin!

Eric, show me where the factory installed the 950 CFM "approved" carb. Would you like to debate the TRW piston?
Pat is correct about chasing other bogus parts, but there's too many out there benefitting from them. Oh and NHRA doesn't have the cujones to pick on a combo that has a lot of users.
Jim, you're 100% right. Jim did you know that you could have had a 500 cfm Holley factory installed on the 258" six? High altitude option. :>) We both missed the boat on that one.

Your joking on this one right Ed?, a 500 cfm Holley would be a nice addition, I think all the 2 barrell cars should get some love with a brand new replacement carb like the majority of the 4 barrell cars can.

Eric, I'm sure you know there are sneaky pete carbs that have been used over the years. I know of one for AMC's. Not so much other brands.
