Have them look stock and the CC measure to the numbers they have. BP

Barry , I have no problem with whatever someone wants to spend on Stocker heads, given the way the rules are written, currently. Of course, as long as the US government is not subsidizing it.
I say "currently" because I've had experience with this, going back many years.
I was in teardown at Miami -Hollywood in 1988 . Next to me was my friend and mentor, the late Joe DeLorenzo, tearing down Ritchie De Cola's K/Stock Chevelle.
One of the ports looked like it had water sitting in it for a while. Tech wasn't too concerned because only one was like that. Joey told the tech guy that NHRA needed to stop this use of acid and port work being hidden, right now ,before it gets out off hand. The tech guy says.."Yeah, we know. We're gonna get right on it...blah, blah
(1988)
A few years later, Wesley told me (I guess it's okay to mention this), that he was working on a chemical to use that would detect acid masking. NHRA told him thanks, but we're not interested . (90's)
In post #91 I mentioned 30 years of neglect by NHRA.. Just two examples.
