Get your facts straight.

In 2010 Ford built 4 complete NA Cobrajets; 428 - Brian Wolfe, 428 - Gary Richard, 352 - Chris Holbrook and 4.6 3v - Gary Summers.

In 2013 Ford built a small number of complete 5.0 L NA Cobrajets. Randy Payne's Cobrajet (raced by Jeff Harrington) is one that comes to mind.

Ford Racing has also sold complete NA engines. Below is a photo of the COMPLETE 5.0 L N/A motor that Jimmy and I installed in Randy Hopkin's 2013 CobraJet. This engine was purchased COMPLETE from Ford and was delivered by Varsity Ford.

Yes. Ford has some "paper only" N/A combinations in the guide, but they are not alone in doing that.

Well I don't have a dog in this fight. But I agree with the last line of Barton's post. I also agree there is other ways, besides weight to slow the blower cars down. It works out to about .15 per .250" up top and a little less than that on the bottom.

But as I have said to many people, many times....bitch all you want about it, but you will still be at the race.
