I really wasn't aware of some of the horsepower factors in some of the classes I don't compete in.
It appears that there is an LS1 in some bodies that is at 381.
Then there is a manual transmission combo that is something like 40 horsepower less than the 381 of the same body.
Then,if it is in a Corvette,you see 350.But in a Firebird, it's 381
Are these engines all the same or are there differences?

It must be the body Style. LOL That was one of the reasons for the AHFS. Before the AHFS the engine combo would get hit no matter what body style it was in. This year under the currant AHFS rules should be interesting. Should we now call the AHFS the all New Woke AHFS. This year I hope they are calling me .66 under. Barry
