cross breading of engines in Stock and/or Super Stock

Hi All,

Long time lurker, rare poster....

I used to heads-up drag race in the NMRA heavily during the 2000's and have since had kids, got involved in life, etc......long story short, I've been out of drag racing since 2009. But we all know that the drag racing bug never just goes away.......Fast forward to a few years ago, I acquired a 1966 Mustang roller that is a former NMRA Hot Street car. I've been piecing together parts over the past 2 years and somewhere along the way I decided that I wanted to go "new school" and am building a highly modified 5.0 coyote engine to put under the hood.

I let my NHRA membership lapse years ago and so I don't have access hard copy rules or the online rules. My question: Does NHRA have any Stock or Super Stock classes that would allow for a newer model year Ford engine to be run in a older body style?

The combo should run mid 9's naturally aspirated....I guess there is always Super Gas or Super Street, (or Comp?) but I like the Stock/Super Stock format much more.

Thanks for your help!!

Scott
