Gary, where have you been. The Brodix spec head is for CHEVY, FORD, AND MOPAR!!!!!! Also, more cars will come, and I doubt that many will come from current eliminators. They can keep doing what they're doing, and get the same results. NOT interesting anymore. No one cares anymore in the spectator world.

As an interested bystander I see no need for "spec" heads, or other items that require capital expenditures. Go get a 1" restrictor plate and look at it. If you can only get so much air into the engine and so much out ( restricted exhaust 2.5") why make people buy new heads. I really don't care what head or piston or camshaft is under that spacer, Think of the ease of tech, 1" 4 hole spacer , 1" diameter bores NO tapered spacers. Then P and G and scale, what could be easier. Maybe have a canted valve /inline valve formula, but I would still run my inline stuff anyhow. As far as stud mounted rockers and timing chains who cares, it has been proven to be the wrong valve activation for over twenty years, other than the initial cost the Jesel's/T&D's will be cheaper in the long run. Make the spacer an item that can be interchanged with everybody, and make us swap them around with each other at each race.
You have to make this a class that for a couple hundred dollars lots of cars fit. I know of at least 4 maybe 5 cars that would consider this game. The tire deal is also a non issue, in reality it would not be the 14-32 car that would be the fastest car, but the car that has just enough tire. Keep the restrictions to the items that count.
Just my two cents, It needs to be simple and attainable for everybody that thinks they MIGHT want to try it.
