I know it's not S/SS elated but NHRA is going to test a new engine format for the T/F and F/Cs.
Looks like there will be alot of either slow or junk runs for a while till they adapt.
1.) 4.187 Bore
2.) 3.750 Stroke
3.) 7 to 1 Compression
4.) Single 70-gallon fuel pump
5.) 15% overdrive on the blower
6.) No timing management
7.) 350 rear end gear
8.) 90% Nitro Methane limit
To my lack of knowledge the biggest hurdle looks like the "no timing management" clause.
Maybe a few AA/SA cars will qualify in the short fields.
Just a guess,I'll say they will be in the 4.80/295 range in the 1/4.I'm probably way off though.
