Any lawyers in the house?? What does "sole and absolute discretion" mean??

I had several 5.0 class racers tell me to wack the pedestals for studs. So I asked Bruce one year at Somona. His answer............"absolutely no"

I run the oem rocker, fulcrum and bolt with a shimmed lifter, works just fine.
Your mileage may vary.

Don't see how, Charlie.
They're talking about port modifications.
Screw in studs have been legal since forever. When they start DQing Chevies and early Pontiacs, then I'd worry about that rule.
