Ya know Chris, a guy racing a 390 FFFord really shouldn't be bringing up that Group 19 stuff. The AMC guys just might start looking through the original FFFord spec sheets.

Careful what you guys wish for. You never know what NHRA has up their sleeves.

Y'all got the wrong "Chris" Mr. Billy.

The Mountain Man drives a small FFFord.

I have good friends that run AMX's. That is why I said that.

Maybe NHRA will just allow all S/SS cars to go to fuel injection? like pro stock... lol.

Typically replacement heads are 5-10hp. There are cases of the hp being less with aftermarket head.
