So they just race each other in bracket mode and continue on with the same factor. Allen, is that a good explanation???

I have thought a little more about your explanation and tying it to Allen's comment. I think your explanation is valid, but narrow in the scope that you are comparing the same engine combination in a Firebird vs. a Camaro that are not running in the same class due to weight breaks. Thus eliminating a head's up situation, but I didn't read Allen's question as being that narrow.
Maybe he meant it to be as such, but he simply said "it helps the entire LT1 combo avoid heads-up runs and HP adjustments" which I contend that is not true. The head's up runs are not limited to the same combo they could be any combination in your respective class as you know. That was why I answered that the more classes a LT1 can compete in the greater odds of a heads up run with one of the other combos and it would affect the entire LT1 family in both the Firebirds and Camaros if triggers are hit or the average is affected.
