Excellent job Dan! The bone stock special order Tor-Red Challenger Classic RT 5.7 6speed sitting in my driveway under a cal cover will need some racing #s now.

Anyone know if you can squeeze a 15 inch rim over 2010 RT discs? 5 on 4.5 is pretty close to 5-115M.

When the rule change out before Christmas I called John at Bullet to inquire about a new cam. I didn't order it at the time but he told me that 5 guys had called that week to have new ones ground. I feel bad for those guys as I'm guessing there is no refund on those.

IHRA should have thought this one out a little longer and asked for some input.

Also, I have a hard time believing that many cams are illegal. Look at the times for the PS cars. They aren't going fast enough to have bogus cams.

The old classification guides have them and still available.
Iam helping others get the new cars data added.
Not going to be easy but it will get done.

As for cams the cam builders are being smart.

New Cars and New Cams.
Have an idea.
Somehow get a list of these new cams.
See if the Factories will send the Cam Specs or a Cam to be measured.
Contract that effort out to a Cam shop to measure and document.
Send the Data to IHRA.

Dan,
specs have to be oem supplied is what I always have been told,and I don't know if you will get any of them to supply specs if it does help them a car.

Has NHRA showed specs for duration/over and spring pressure for anything built after 1986 ?
