And sometimes, they get caught and turned around. If you would like me to send you a list of my "Top 10 Bogus Combos", let me know. I'll PM it to you but the trouble with most is that they have been "bogused up" for so long that they'll never get fixed. I am still shocked that after 35-40 years, NHRA fixed the 69 Camaro hood thing.

I don't see anything wrong with the injected 305s and 350s. All that we're seeing there is smart people spending the time(and$$$) and picking up these combos.

I guess that you're talking about the truck head on a pass. car thing and I don't see anything wrong with that. There's 2 casting #s listed and one is much worse than the other. It should have a different HP factor.

Limiting the combos just drives up the cost, drives out the little guy and stifles innovation and ingenuity!
Well said (as usual), i would like to see your Top Ten Bogus combos list :-)
