Smile Re: New Ford 5.0 On The Books

Almost everyone I know that runs Stock and Super Stock that builds or has built an engine that takes advantage of the specs that are provided for their respective engines. That means cutting the decks on the blocks close to the minimum specs, cams that are close to the maximum lift, head cc's that are near the minimum in the combustion chamber, ETC. Why would you not expect Ford, Chrysler, and GM to take advantage of the same system that makes the Engine builders build their engines to the specs that give them the advantage? It is the System that is in place through both NHRA and IHRA that makes the manufacturers do what they do. Like it or not it is no different than what all racers do to be competetive.
