We plan on storing #1, and racing #3. If the other guys who are getting No 1 thru 10 want to post, they can tell you who they are. Some very well known names.

Re: new hp
 

With the HP letters being sumitted and granted HP or being turned down,does anyone have an idea what NHRA looks at when making decisions? I know of one V6 FWD FI combo that`s been given back at least 25 HP in a span of about 6 or 7 years to be rated less than a carburated combo and go from being an uncompetitive car to being .40 under the new indexes and doing nothing to the car? I`ve written letters and got nothing,where some have submitted timeslips from a bracket race and received a HP reduction. Not looking for sympathy,just looking for answers to what NHRA looks at.

i know the answer, pick me!!!!!!!!

Re: new hp
 

A few questions for Dan.

The specs sent out for your engine in 19?? were what they were. Did the factory technican sending the specs back then know what your engine was built with? Would you like to have a new rocker arm ratio on your engine? If so just call the factory and see if you can get an increase on your engine's rocker arm ratio and cam lift.

I'm sure it would all be readily accepted!

The new HP is 174 the cloumns don't line up.

Re: new hp
 

The rocker arm ratio was a missprint in the original specs. It should have always read 1.65 to 1.

The cam lift should have remained the same as originally printed as it was not a missprint. The cam lift as originally printed has passed teardown because the engines were built to the old spec using 1.65 rockers.

DP racers got an early christmas present on the new cam lift.

It's about time we got something. We been pooed on for years. And I am thankful to Santa Clause. I heard Santa also had some special facial creme that removes the Bowtie from the middle of the forehead. It's gonna be a long winter.
