How to submit a engine?

You have to submit an NHRA Technical Information sheet, which is actually 4 sheets long. It details everything about the engine (more than would appear in the Blueprint Specs). It has the piston weight, rod length and weight, rod and crank and cam journals, and all the details of a stock as produced motor. Aftermarket allowed items are not on this sheet. Basically you need a motor to disassemble and pour runners, chamber, detail carb measurements etc. I would inquire of NHRA Tech and see if there is any interest and why. You probably need to know the factory guy for your particular brand. I would think if this body platform is not currently run, you will need details on that too (weight, wheelbase, track etc). This document is referred to as a TI Sheet. It is time consuming, not that difficult, and you seem to never find everything you need. Even though many things are allowed (brakes, pistons, & lots of others), the original stuff goes on the TI Sheet. Hope this helps. Gump is right, except the factory guy can just concur (because most of them will not take the time on an older combo).
