Default Re: 1997 Neon 4 door Stocker





This is all NHRA provided for the blueprint..there is no mention of deck height..

So I suppose I can't throw in a set of KB241 pistons and be legal?

Deck clearance is 0.0
Not unless NHRA accepted them.

So what is the stock deck height so I can tell the machinist...

Would replacement pistons bought from the dealer be ok when I bore the block?

I would try for a 2 to 5 thousanths down the bore. Oversize stock factory pistons are okay.
Not sure about the head gasket thickness though. Use the MLS The DOHC is about .040 thick.

I was looking through the IHRA Rulebook and 18.49 would put me in DF/SA..

I don't have an NHRA rulebook but I'm CF/S in NHRA?
