1973 NHRA Super Stock and Stock Class Weight Factors




Cook and Leong
1971 Dodge Charger R/T ~ 426 Hemi ~ Class 'B/SA'

In 1973,

The NHRA had re-factored the 1971 426/425 HP {Hydraulic Camshaft} to {450 HP}

#3839 lbs. ~ 450 HP = 8.53 Wt/HP

Now that was one nice weight break for 1973.

For Stock Class, any tires {DOT approved} that could fit within the Rear Fenderwell was permitted. This Charger R/T had 12" Wide Tires.

In 1973 Stock Class, you had run thru a full exhaust system {No Headers}.

Rumor has it, that this 1971 Dodge Charger R/T was 'chemically engineered' at the factory by Chrysler.
