New Eliminator proposition

Here is a rule set that is already in place and working, so there are already cars to draw from. There is also a similar class for the Ford guys. Pick a crate engine for the Mopar guys, and then you have a HEADS UP class with the 3 major brands, and tear downs become a non-issue. Also eliminates the costs associated with experimenting with cams, valve jobs, ring packs, etc, etc, etc. Lots of cars that are gathering dust could easily be pulled out of retirement, and with an engine swap, be racing. Rules could easily be adjusted to include SS type cars also, because at this hp level, there is no real advantage chassis wise.
While the NMRA and NMCA are fine small scale sanctioning bodies, I think a class like this would be a major deal if ran at NHRA/IHRA.
