351C questions

[JRyan]

Bill,

You're running STOCK. Of course the 42/46 lifter bores are better, but how STOCK would they be. The whole problem we have today with Stock Elim is that everybody wants to deviate from the rules to give THEMSELVES an advantage.

We run a Boss 351 Stocker, so we know what can be done to make them work, but I read the part in the rule book where it says, "unless optional performance equipment or a performance modification is specificall permitted by this rulebook, it is prohibited", so we just do with what they allow. The reason I said I'd like to see somebody check the lifter bores is because it's already being done and I think the culprits should be disqualified for doing so. So just because it doesn't say YOU CAN'T, don't assume that YOU CAN.

You can download the NHRA rulebook and look up specs from the NHRA competition icon on this site. It might help to answer future questions as well as show you the answers to the questions you've already asked.

I didn't read your rocker question closely enough; I thought you were referring to adjustable pushrods.

Good luck with your Cleveland project.

Jerry
