Couple years back it was roller rockers and race seats
last year it was cage can continue into engine area
aluminum replacement heads have been a 5hp option for years

Will the quickfuel 780 holley be a 5hp option for all v-8's.......makes you think
and a holley 2300 for two barrells for 2hp

Its always interesting!

Ya know Chris, a guy racing a 390 FFFord really shouldn't be bringing up that Group 19 stuff. The AMC guys just might start looking through the original FFFord spec sheets.

Careful what you guys wish for. You never know what NHRA has up their sleeves.

Y'all got the wrong "Chris" Mr. Billy.

The Mountain Man drives a small FFFord.

I have good friends that run AMX's. That is why I said that.

Maybe NHRA will just allow all S/SS cars to go to fuel injection? like pro stock... lol.

It's 10.

68 Mustang 302 is 220 SS/ OEM iron heads and 230 aftermarket aluminum (AFR 1399 in my case). GT/ hp is the same as SS/.
