Superstock gt factors
I am trying to figure out the correct weight for the following:
1967 Ford mustang coupe/hardtop 1973 351c engine rated @ 246hp (engine blueprint says 246, car classification says 266hp) I was told it fits in GT/EA, GT/FA. what is the correct weights for this combo. Starting season in ss/modified, but building gt motor as backup. Thanks for the help. Richard |

Re: Superstock gt factors
Richard, if my math is correct it should be a natural GT/EA with the 73 engine. The weights would be GT/DA 2830 GT/EA 2970 GT/FA 3110. I think thats correct.

The '73 351C 246 or 266 are both refactored to 280 for GT classes. Here would be your class weights with driver: GT/EA = 2995 (car cannot go up to class break, 10.09) GT/FA = 3110 GT/GA = 3250 GT/HA = 3390 Travis (Disclaimer: Opinions expressed by me on this forum are exactly that, my opinions.) |

Re: Superstock gt factors
Thanks everyone!, Bubski, I already have a 304 Modified motor in the car now which is sqeezing me dry and making me a nervous wreck, LOL. Throttle body and FI would make me crazy. Mr Eiskant Sr & Jr will take care of my nerves for me.
