I think IHRA may have to have to Standardize on a Spring that is most common. Much like Pure Stock Drag has. They standardized on 130# Seat Pressure without damper.
If the heads came with more you could use that number.
IMHO most of our stockers came with 80#, some with 100#.
Might be wise to use 100# for all cams unless published higher and can be documented.
Simplify the process and reduce Tech Maintenance.

Don't the springs Dan have to meet OEM specs for each individual combination? Wouldn't going with a standard spring pressure help some but hurt others depending on what engine they were running? I can't remember what ours is off the top of my head but I would guess that they vary from car to car.
It was Mark Kent that I worked with. If Mike Baker doesn't have a cam spec for your car and it isn't in the classification guide for Pure Stock this would be a good start. Just because they may run that combination in NHRA Stock Eliminator doesn't mean they have the information they need for Pure Stock. That's what we ran into.
Hey Dan ... did I read somewhere that you finished the year in 10th place in your Division in points? If so congratulations! That's outstanding for a Pure Stocker to be up there.
