For those who dont know......the H/PS class is a 15 lb class like O/S in regular stock. Stick and automatics run heads up in in the same class in pure stock. They are 1 lb class breaks starting with 8 lbs per HP down to 16 pounds per HP. cam, valve springs rules are like pre 1985 stocker rules. Water pump must be driven off of the crank (no elec. water pump drives). Trans is SUPPOSED to be as per OEM. No lite duty automatics in place of Turbo 400's or 904s in place of 727's, and no C4s in place of C6s although I know of one car that is running the WRONG trans. IHRA made an allowance in the HP factor for it but its not enough. The cams and valve springs need to be checked in this catagory from time to time also or its a joke.
