Bill Bushmaker owns the '65 Valiant that his daughter, Angela drives in K/SA (Div. VI) and the engine work is performed by Larry Hollums, in Kent, WA. I talked to Larry about this car a couple of weeks ago and he said that they had just finished putting a newly-approved aluminum intake manifold on the car.

Bill and Larry have been knee-deep in NHRA Stock Eliminator for over 30 years; they're not going to install a manifold that's going to get the car bounced.

I don't know why the information is not in the Blueprint specifications, but probably, NHRA laid-off the person who changes the info on that website in their last round of cost-cutting measures.

If you want to run a Rat Roaster, put the car in Super Stock and have at it...
