The 63 was 425, with not much difference in specs, if any. There's a perfect example for Dwight's previous post . The 62 has been reduced through the current system, but nowhere near enough. The single 4 , 380 /365 hp needs about 65 more off it ,with that small carburetor.

Re: HP Reduction Request
Not real computer savy that is why I never log on. I to have raced stock for over 40 years on a very limited budget. Haven't race since 2007 when my son passed. Why not do away with the heads up race except for when the exact same combo is pair. You may get a few more racers that way. I know there are a lot of fast D E F & G combos that I certainly can't compete against. Not wanting to start an argument just want to help e little guys.

Re: HP Reduction Request
A few years ago I really tried to get 10% off of I think 1995 or so back, and 5 % off the inbetween motors LT1, LS1 and a couple more, and nothing for 2008 or newer. After getting severely scolded by old car guys for various reasons (my favorite "We will got fast and then get hit with HP") I cancelled that project, and had a couple of beverages. I thought I was trying to help. Many disagreed.
