Wade did not come on here to be bashed. He has a legitimate concern and was very honest about his concerns. The word "legal" doesn't really apply anymore, if it ever did. As with almost any motorsports, what "will and will not pass tech" is a more appropriate phrase.

You are proably right that the phrase should be "will and will not pass tech"

What will and what won't pass tech may be reality. But the fact remains if you or if you have someone do any of the above things to a cylinder head it is not a legal cylinder head. It may very well pass tech but it is still not a legal head. Until they change the wording of the rule doing any porting and covering it up is still not legal

Now on those same lines a good digitizer could easily take the guess work out of the situation. All you need is a real untouched head to get the numbers off. All the old cars people used the core shift as to why that would not work. But with these new factory race cars with the cnc ported heads from the factory. You should be able to know without a doubt if someone has changed the cylinder head. But none of that matters because Neither HRA is ever going to take following the rules they set seriously. Hence how they got to the mess they have now.
