Yeah, right Alex.
Thing is, nothing GM did in the past compares to what has happened since Ford and Chrysler got NHRA to rewrite the
founding principle rules for Stock and Super Stock. The new
"no VIN, and no production standard" rule is far beyond anything in the history of Stock and Super Stock, Alex.
We now have cars that were never sold for street use, and engines that were never certified or sold in a production car in Stock and Super Stock. You can talk about LT-1 engines in 98 F body cars all you want, that minor shuffle involved certified cars and certified bodies, and there was no performance advantage. Had that not been done, there simply wouldn't have been any new 98 F body cars in Stock that year. And the 98 F body with an LT-1 is no faster than a 97 F body with an LT-1. You have a straw man argument, Alex, and it ain't holding up to close examination.
