The rule book I have states quite clearly that CYLIDER HEADS CANNOT BE MODIFIED. So if your head runners pour MORE THAN the SS spec, they are too big. If your heads pour MORE THAN an original head that NHRA provides, they are to big. PERIOD!!
AND, no where in the rulebook does it state that you can port a head, cover it with acid, and it will be legal as long as it does not exceed the SS spec's. That unfortunately is the assumption that many racers and engine builders have.
Maybe, just maybe, NHRA has spec's for heads, and their fact finding mission over the
last year has simply been to find out how many bogus heads are out there.
Jerry is correct, it's THEIR ballpark. If you don't like it, don't join.

Bob, who says they are using the SS Specs? Has NHRA made an announcement they will use the SS Specs for Stock Eliminator? For a starters, many of the numbers in the SS Specs are incorrect.
