Re: 2 tenths?

On another note, when you have a Stock class car enter and win Super Stock at a national event, would seem like an index adjustment is in order.[/QUOTE]
Good point but is it the index that needs fixing or the HP factor on the engine?
Anything other than the normal balance job was considered lightening same as cross breeding of parts ie: small journal crank in a large journal engine. Bearings that would be size that could be purchased at your favorite parts house or listed in price list. New ruling clarifies this.
As I said, no comment on the intake as there is still lack of communication between what will pass and who will pass. I have no opinion on this either way.
The problem lies in who is determining what is "same configuration" as original. example: a sbc with something close to a symetrical intake port spacing. Does "same configuration" mean that it retains stock intake port spacing and is able to adapt a QJet intake on it or does "same configuration" mean that it can be bolted onto a sbc in some form or another? Like has been said many times, just because the rulebook doesn't say you can't do it. That doesn't mean that you can. When divisional tech is constantly overruled by Cali. who do you go to when you need a clarification?
In the mean time, What benifit is there in taking -.2 off the indexes? And while we are at it, anybody know why good tech guys are being lost?
