The CJ cars are teched going off NHRA stock/Super Stock rules. They changed up the weights this year a little bit and allowed tubular K-Members.

Looking at the rules and Jesse stating the minimum weight that would mean Holbrook ran it as a 13 with a 3.5 upper pulley. (10.0 index according to qualifying. http://www.nmradigital.com/cat/class...5-cobrajet.pdf) Which would mean that there is still more power left because the 14 pulley is a 3.375.

Holbrooks car is more as the factory produced then the other car. Smaller tire, more weight, larger car, stock suspension, less cubic inches, with factory cylinder heads…Just Saying

I prefer to be blown…but I dig NA cars too.
Funny how it's a new car thread yet we are the ones who can't take it... Comparing a SS to a STK'er new or old just isn't right. Funny funny funny just too damn funny!
