Lots of Comp cars & SM SS cars do.

Much of our piston, ring and valve train technology trickled down from Pro Stock.
If you have a Stocker, not as much applies. The word Stock in the name has nothing to do with Stock Eliminator. People complain "they all look alike!" Walk through a shopping mall parking lot. Most of the newer cars, of any brand, look just as much alike.
I can't imagine why their appearance bothers some that much. Get real.

How can anybody that knows anything about building engines not be impressed by normally aspirated engines making that kind of power? Or that many cars, of different mfgrs, all running times that close together?

Rose Racing, you are misinformed about Ford's interest in Stock & SS. They are interested in selling Cobra Jets, they do not a have a clue and/or care that any other Ford product exists. There was a time when Ford had pretty decent contingiency payouts, they pulled most of that money and directed it at the Cobra Jets. Can't fault them but don't nurse any illusion that they are supporting sportsman racing.

Its kinda easy to be misinformed about such things I dont know anybody that works at Ford Racing just making a guess.Im loosing more and more interest in PRO drag racing period...... The Ford Pro Stocks dont even run a Ford based engine....... They run a generic Mopar 99 Hemi lol and then we ask why they are not interested.......
