9.26 - Mans - Chevy
9.27 - Perno - Ford
9.28 - Bogner - Mopar
Will there be a list of accepted heads?
Same thing happened in A/ND, one brand (chevy) with a 14 degree head can go to 300 CC and flow more than 400 cfm.
This made Ford and Mopar obsolete in the class, WTF, had great parity and now only Chevy!
If anyone knows a Ford or Mopar head that can compete with this, I am in the Market.

We were told a couple years ago that 1-2 Dart head castings would be made legal for the Chevrolet CS class, but they would remain a 23* head with standard port location. No raised runner 15-18-23* stuff like the Pro-Action or RHS castings, as the intention is just to replace the GM Bowtie heads. Something that would utilize the same manifolds, pistons, etc... We had even started an R&D effort around these heads, and found no power gains to be had - other than hopefully increased longevity.
From what we have been told, it is still only going to be an "Accepted" list of aftermarket castings. So they have definitely worded this update incorrectly if that is the case. Hopefully they will make a revision on this line item soon for everyone's clarification.
Small correction - we ran 9.22 @143 in Belle Rose back in 2009. That's everything we had! SS/CS is a very fun class with some great competition, and I surely hope it maintains it's health. In 2011 David Bogner, James Antonette Jr. and myself all finished in the Top 10 nationally while running CS - it's definitely a well represented class.
