Educate me in MX classes

Freddie, not sure how available 4 cyl. stuff is or how competitive it would be. There is however quite a bit of the Ford V-6 stuff out there. I've often thought about gathering up some of the 4 cyl. stuff just to try it but I've been fairly content with my V-6 stuff.Joe Oh and yes Tim is very good with the V-6 stuff, he's helped me quite a bit with mine.

Are you running the old SVO V-6 stuff? There is a good bit of 4 cyl stuff out there, but would have to run the car in CX because of the weight. And have been thinking of doing a turbo deal to run DX. Otherwise I am limited to sourcing out V6 stuff and running A or B.

Thanks

Yes, all old SVO stuff, what's the weight of your car? Mines just shy of 3000# with a 276ci. engine.To answer the other part of your question, yes I'd say the car would be legal for the X classes, basically chassis cars with carpet, my one sticking point on my AX car was the lack of a "stock appearing" dash.Other than that they had no other issues with it.Joe

in 10.5 trim with a small block, two nitrous bottles and me we tip the scales at 2315# One of the reasons i was looking at the 4 cyl.

OH yeah, that would mean AX with a V-6, unless of course it was VERY small and you gained some weight.
