Re: Pomona GT/MA (-1.41 under) does it get HP ???
So does this HP hit apply to cars running the 265 in traditional Super Stock?

The HP change only applies to this specific engine which is a late model 265. Paul |

Jim & Paul
Thanks for that info. Just curious, how does that combo come to get 265 cid? Is it a 262 block? Thanks Allan |

Thanks Allan[/quote] The Combo is from a 95 96 full size Caprice I believe, the 262 is a V6 I am fairly sure. Paul |

Nope, it's a unique block that shares a number of the features of an LT1 block. Specifically, it has provision for reverse-flow cooling, a gear driven water pump, the infamous Optispark ignition, roller lifters, and more. The good thing is that it has exactly the same bore and stroke as a '55 or '56 Chevy. We know what it take to make that combination run.

There was a 262 small block chev. Produced from 1974-76. 3.671" bore x 3.1" stroke.
I need to do some research on GT classes. The last time I ran my car they were SS/GT. A lot has changed since then. Allan |

I was pitted next to Ron. The run did not count, it is an automatic transmission, and it did not get hit.

So if a car goes -1.40 or faster does tech have to tear down that vehicle to confirm he/she is legal before horsepower is added to that combo? Otherwise how does one confirm the run was legit in the first place?
