Most Significant "Stocker" Technology

Billy Nees · 06-10-2019, 07:47 AM

OK, it's the 21ST century. Stockers are never going to be seeing 7" tires and "stock" valve spring rules ever again.
What do youze guyz (sorry, I spent the weekend at Numidia) tink are the most significant and important technological advances driving Stock Eliminator into the future?
Please no whining, we're just talkin' here.
I'm thinking that the ability to gather data on a run has to be up there. So, Data logging.

Maybe, more torque converter technology to make them adjustable and more efficient and LIGHTER ?

Well, I did replace my Shiefer Rev Loc pressure plate and "L88" disk and 30 lb flywheel in my stocker with a fancy smancy double disk clutch setup that is faster and easier to tune.

Sorry Dale, but what is this torque converter thing you speak of ?

CNC Ported Cylinder Heads for the Factory Stockers....

L88 I resemble that ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

O2 sensors and the internet so a racer can research what ever wild idea he is thinking.

Acid porting

well being that illegal porting and the methods for disguising it has been in use for decades as well light weight body panels made of aluminum or carbon fiber, whatever this technology is, it's either already being used or hasn't been developed yet.
