Re: The damage recently done
Quote from the NHRA rule book, in the engine section: "Equipment other than original factory-installed prohibited. Any special equipment export kit (superchargers, dealer-installed options, etc.) automatically disqualifies car."
Well, did the factory ever put a 780 holley or an aluminum edelbrock manifold on these AMCs?

Re: The damage recently done
Wow, I just checked the qualifying at the Div. 6 Woodburn LODRS race, and after the first session, Jim Mantles AMC Pacer is #1 qualifier! I wonder if the 258 6 banger recieved some of this new AMC enhancing!!

Re: The damage recently done
Not saying this happened but at that time AMC was using the Ford Autolite carbs like on the 429/460 maybee this 780 Holley appeared the same time frame as the Holley 780 for the 351 Cleveland's. Those cars used the Autolite 4100 and 4300 D was Fords version of a Q-Jet. Could this have happened?

Re: The damage recently done
Base 429 used the Autolite carb. The 351-C NEVER used Holleys in production I have copy's of the 70, 71, and 72 all Boss 351 and 351 CJs used the Autolite 4300D

Re: The damage recently done
Ralph is correct. The Boss came with an autolite carb that is really expensive and somewhat hard too find. We need one to restore our boss. No holley on the 71-72 351 cars. However, we do get to use one in stock.
