Hey Charley Bogus,

You really believe there should be 19hp more on a Camaro body than a Malibu. I didn't expect anyone to take it personally, I was just adding some examples to Gregs post. The Malibu guys with the dish piston cried to NHRA to take 5hp off their small cam combo because they claimed they couldn't run with Billy Lynns 79 Malibu. Guess what holds the M/SA record at 1.38 under the index? A poor old 230hp Malibu.My point is the AHFS should get rid of the body specific nonsense. You said it yourself, hard work and money is a great equalizer. When you get your bogus piston back from NHRA we can try that motor in my Vette. and compare the different body styles. Send me your cell number PM and we can talk.
