Wrong Billy. The original 50 did not ALL have aluminum intakes. Only the cars that ran SS were allowed the aluminum intake along with flattop pistons and the .600 lift cam. If they had all come with aluminum intakes, they would have all been allowed to run that way since 1968.

Here is the website address:

1968 =335 H.P.......2012 =383 H.P.....Not quite the same weight for C/SA !

Re: The damage recently done
 

One of those over rated cj's ran 9.98 at Earlville in A/SA. Pretty impressive.

Greg, is that first 9 sec A/SA pass?.......??

Like I said, I'm not a FFFord guy. The fact still remains, NHRA isn't going to start checking VINs.
Jason, maybe you should bring this website up to the powers that be at NHRA!

Were those flat tops fly cut for the exhaust valves????

Jason provided the website, here is your answer.

its 27 years already?

Re: The damage recently done
 

As I remember the BIg Block Chevrolets received a crate motor intake that was much bigger and better than the stock one with no HP penalty. I think it was off of the 502 crate engine. Those cars are going 9.60's not bad as well. Not to much outrage about that.

Not really when you consider that Lance has arguably the fastest CJ in the country by a few tenths and I'm sure its got every bit of Pro Stock technology that he can use to get it there. 9.984 on an 11.00 index is only 1.016 under. Now if I could get one to run a second under then I would be impressed but you're talking about a guy who's brother is arguably the best engine builder/tuner in NHRA Pro Stock. I think this separates Lance from the rest of us.
