I’m new to stock (1yr) and I don’t have anything to add regarding tear down. I am carrying all my extra gaskets and stuff needed to take apart the engine for tech inspection if needed. I was careful in building the engine and know it will pass.
On another note when I was racing super-gas with no tear down worries NHRA did approach us in the staging lanes at the Winternationals to run their sonic checker over my roll bars. They found 1 door bar under by few thousandths (no +- with NHRA) I was out if I couldn’t fix it before E1. Made a call to Hansen and got it in and back overnight with a replaced door bar.
Luckily Ricky Smith was there at the same time so they had some staff already there working the evening shift.
