NHRA approves a new "Dime Rocket"!

There is no 350/165 engine specs only 305/165 specs. I'm sure it will be corrected, unless we just dream up our own 350 specs

which will lead to 10 or 12 short bed chevy trucks at each race. Don't think a 624 head lasted past 82 but I really don't care. Just would like to see engine specs before buying one.

Daran, it is a 350. You have to look under '86 Chevrolet Truck...it's under a separate heading.

Thanks never noticed a truck only list. I think there is one down the street for cheap, I still want a daily driver that I can run association and IHRA races, that would work!

I just brought home a 2.5 T minivan instead, I believe the fuel mileage will be better and it was just too nice to pass up. Chevy might get 14-15 mpg and turbo may get 22-25 maybe
