Crate Engines in NHRA?

My thoughts on this are pretty simple.

I like to look at a S/SS car and have an idea what engine combination might be in it
That's part of the allure and interest I have in those classes ...Always been that way.

Crate motors just don't do that for me. Too close to Bracket Two for a traditional guy like me. I feel the same way, to a lesser extent, about GT / Super Stock..... and definitely that way about Nascar.

As far as changing NHRA rules to accommodate your favorite car you drove back in high school...That's not the way it works in Stock Eliminator.

You build yourself a car that fits into the existing rules structure.
Seems simple enough to me...

How many you want?

Don't want to leave out the Blue Oval bunch:

Here you go. Runs P/SA or the bottom Pure Stock class in IHRA
