500 inch engines and carbs are , in fact , archaic....... no longer appropriate for or indicative of , anything coming from the big 3. That concept should have died 30 years ago.
Pro Stock truck sucked , frankly , because like myself , most didn't CARE for a "truck" as a platform for a drag car. That should have been applied to the CARS..
As I stated in another thread......this will be interesting to see who cries the loudest and what new life is injected in to ProStock .

Alan's suggestions would retain the current drivetrains other than changing to F.I. A zillion dollars worth of engines saved.

Going with current engines, we have Chevy and Dodge with strong push rod 2V engines. Ford not without going to their race-only cup style stuff. That would bring up bore spacing issues among others. Easy answer would be to allow all 3 to use cup engines. Then it's just small block versions of what we already have...only slower.

Go multi-valve, DOHC, and Dodge, and Chevy don't have V8's currently.

Go with DOHC 4V V-6's, or 4 cylinders and all 3 have engines. N/A, they'd be too slow. So, I'm guessing you want them boosted?

What are your ideas here? Just trying to understand what you think would/could work.
