Be sure to check the classification guides and engine blueprint specs too. There are changes that were not posted there as well. For example, 1987 Chevy Camaro 305 190 combo went from 240hp to 245hp and engine specs changed from flat hydraulic to hydraulic roller.,

Makes you wonder. I don't see anyone running that combo on Nitro Joes stats. I was told that no runs, no HP reduction will be considered directly by Pat. Guess that rule was just for me.

According to the rule book, once an engine family receives a hp increase, it is never eligible for a hp decrease.

Stock had 7 combinations get a reduction. 3 of those combos had an NHRA hp rating higher than the OEM rating:

1977 Malibu: OEM = 160-170, Old = 275, New = 271
1969 Roadrunner: OEM = 390, Old = 400, New = 395
1986 T'bird OEM = 150, Old = 200, New = 197

How were these eligible for a reduction?

I was wondering that too, but I have given up on equal enforcement of the rules or even simple enforcement of the rules as written.

I’m not familiar with that rule, however the Six Pack needed it in C for sure. John Leach must be pleased but I’m sure he wished for more. Beep Beep!
