New Crate Engine Build

Didn't IHRA drop Stock and Super Stock a couple years ago? If so, it wouldn't really make sense to build a crate motor if there's nowhere to race it. Am I missing something?

That's what I thought also.

I think that he may be looking to race in the local CanAm Stock/Super Stock series.
Also, CM cars are allowed at the NHRA Open being run at Toronto Motorsports Park and Napierville.

What car is the ZZ6 405 Crate installed at the factory in?

The ZZ6 405 is an alum headed 350" SB and it was never available in a production car. It was on the list of accepted crate motor engines that can be used.

I know it's not my money, but it doesn't make much sense to build a car for an obsolete class. Yes you can run some Nat Opens, etc. but if you build a NHRA stocker you can run (or sell Later) anywhere.
