Ed F.

Could someone post the comparative engine specs for all three engines?
Ed, they still have quite a bit of leeway, consider this; 2 of the CJs at Pomona were in A/S and A/SA, they weighed 3570 lbs (8.00 lbs/hp = 3400 lbs +170 = 3570 lbs.) If the CJs are hit with 35 hp which would bring them to 460 hp; they would have to weigh 3620 lbs in AA/S (7.50 lbs/hp = 3450 lbs +170 = 3620) which is only 50 lbs more than than John Calvert in A/S and Gary Stinnett in A/SA had to weigh at Pomona.
