Don't come crying about FoMoCo. Yeah the single 4 Shelby is bogus as hell but it is allowed so deal with it. I have.
Mopar has slid through just as much if not more when they were in bed with NHRA
Some examples below.
AAR and TA hoods on E bodies that don't belong
WO SS scoops on stockers
Aluminum intakes on 70-71 Six packs
Plenty of superceded heads
750 Carter Competition Series carbs on Max Wedges
Cross ram intakes that don't cross
Low deck blocks in RB motors
Adjustable rocker arms in any motor and plenty more.
I won't even mention 3 speeds in SS for powerslide GM cars.
It is what it is so deal with it because you are never going to change it once NHRA agrees to it.
Geeeze!
