Every time I am at a standstill with the Glendora office, I reach out to the Tim White, NHRA's Senior Director Of Engineering.

Tim worked for Delphi, Cummins and Penske Racing prior to joining NHRA. I have always enjoyed the technical subject conversations that have taken place with Tim and he has always backed up his responses with an email.

The part numbers for the LT1 crank sensor.

12552427 Timing Cover

10190917 Reluctor Wheel

19170837 Crank Sensor

I have forwarded this to Pat for his consideration.

I got a call from Pat wanting to know if I ran a crank trigger, supposedly called several other racers wanting to know the same.
Time will tell what will happen. thanks Dan,

One way or another the vagueness in the rule will be written with clarity.
NHRA does it all the time.

Stock Eliminator does not lend well with the aftermarket industry.
Should be some sort of rule allowing bolt on upgrades.
Crate Motor offered some of that.
Like allowing under used engines such as big Caddy engines in BOP cars.
Bolt on 4bbls like on the mid70/80 Mustangs and Monzas.
Under used Ford 300cuin 6 with a 4bbl.
Or for that matter let the 6 cylinder AMC guys have the better heads.
Or flattop Pistons for the Low compression BOP cars.
74 Firebird with 10:1 compression would be a A stocker.
Much like Pure Stock Drags and FAST do.

Just my 2 cents

Dan, Please go race Crate Motor. Numerous people have tried to help you. You just don’t seem to be very receptive.

From here on out you are on your own.

See you on the bottom of the qualifying sheets,
