Couple years back it was roller rockers and race seats
last year it was cage can continue into engine area
aluminum replacement heads have been a 5hp option for years

Will the quickfuel 780 holley be a 5hp option for all v-8's.......makes you think

Ya know Chris, a guy racing a 390 FFFord really shouldn't be bringing up that Group 19 stuff. The AMC guys just might start looking through the original FFFord spec sheets.

I have good friends that run AMX's. That is why I said that.

Maybe NHRA will just allow all S/SS cars to go to fuel injection? like pro stock... lol.

68 Mustang 302 is 220 SS/ OEM iron heads and 230 aftermarket aluminum (AFR 1399 in my case). GT/ hp is the same as SS/.
