Older Superstock GT cars with scoops

It seems the combo's are unlimited. How about a 1963 Z-11 (Old Reliable) alum. front end Chebbie (real or cloned) with a 396/375 or a 454. Maybe a 283/220 for GT S/S since NHRA lists the Z-11 in the guide for S/S and a heavy duty rear would be legal. Lots of luck finding the Alum. parts. Just to show how the combos could become wild. No more nuts than a 68 Hemi Dart or 'Cuda with a 273 or a T-Bolt with a 289. How about a 60 Chevy wagon like Jack's stocker with an L-88 or ZL-1 engine combo? Then he could use a 3 speed auto without any grief from the tech dept. Then theres always a 64-65 GTO with the 421 SD engine or a 455 SD. A '66 Mustang with a Boss 429 Hemi (if it would fit). And some of you guys think IHRA's GT stock class is screwed up. Gezzzzzzzzzzz. LOL It sounds like "HEAVY" eliminator with engine spec. rules to me.
