As I pointed out in another thread, the only people that will benefit from this rule will be the Chevy guy's.

There are no other car's that can be built and be competitive with out spending over a 100k. Blown Fords and TBirds are non-existing and would cost 100k just to buy, 57 Pontiac's were not competitive, 58's were but where are you going to find one for less that $40,000.00, blown Studes suffer the same fate as the Fords.

Lastly, compare the availability of racing parts for the Chevy's vs all the other cars........nada, zip!

But, if there is a masochist out there I have a '58 Tri-power Pontiac Chieftan sedan, auto and posi with only 29k miles for only $38,000.00!

My guess is NHRA will allow a current Paxton to replace the antique Paxton superchargers. After all, they are both belt driven superchargers, right.
You can find decent '57 T-Birds for $25K. A Studebaker or T-Bird with a new Paxton could be pretty interesting!
