Why does it sound like Stock ain't so Stock ?

This means the Drag Pak, Copo, or Cobra Jet, must have the correct sheet metal for the year they're claiming. It's been this way for several years! And no they don't have vin numbers. As Billy said, welcome to the new stock eliminator. You'll see more and more of these factory race cars in classes AA through V stock as more and more showroom engine combos are approved. Still waiting to see the first EcoBoost Cobra Jet !!

My guess is that tech will be questioning the width of the rear end of a 2016 CJ vs. a 2015 EB Mustang if someone shows up with a former CJ turned into a EB look alike.

The CJ is much narrower ( backing plate to backing plate...so to speak) than a EB

The CJ/Drag Pak/COPO IRS replacement spec. is legal. I think that the late model Corvettes were the first to get a "pass" on the backing plate deal.
