Re: Competition for the Blown Fords & V10 Mopars and the Bow
Did you know the real NASCAR 426 ran a 950 cfm? It was the 3 barrel a real NASCAR intake had a notch in the rear for the throttle blade to clear at wot.

I believe NHRA allows the 3v but you can use the 4v 850DP as an alternative.

Re: Competition for the Blown Fords & V10 Mopars and the Bow
Actually the Hp rating is 440 for the automatic, and 430 for stick cars. The NASCAR 3-bbl 950 carb has not been legalized, but the three bbl manifold that was modified for it's use has been legal for over 4 years. The carb was not approved because " it was a NASCAR only carb". Not sure I follow the logic since this is an approved NASCAR engine.

Re: Competition for the Blown Fords & V10 Mopars and the Bow
Well this gives me one reason to join NHRA again. Not that I can run anywhere close to a good A/SA car but at least I wont have to change the carb and intake if I want to run a NHRA race.
I wonder why they didn't include the 117in wheelbase cars in this change. I'll have to hack the crap out of my wheel wells to shorten it up another inch.
