It can if it has the "right" intake!

MJ talk about welfare
What about your combo Get hit 120 under at Englishtown 2016
But change front bumper and get the 120 lbs off
Welfare comes in all different forms But that was ok.

Did MJ cry ? NO....Did MJ say it was OK? NO....Did MJ write one stinking e mail begging for HP off ? NO....next question.......

MJ why cry? welfare was accepted You got your bumper ...EBT card and used it
I wouldn’t complain either if the welfare was available to me
But I already have a soft combo 255 /280 hp.
I will bolt on my tow rope and try and drag any welfare recipients to the HP office
For review but the government shutdown will save you all Merry Xmas

Upon further review, I sincerely apologize to Jim Parsons for hijacking his thread.....Merry Christmas to all, even James P.......LOL. ...!!!

Once the AHFS has determined that a combination's performance warrants a HP increase, how is it that the same AHFS can give that same combination a HP reduction in the future? Was it wrong in the first place? It's a contradiction to say the least.

That Peterson guy would cry if he was hung with a new rope.

Remember that the 283 is not running quicker just because of a horsepower change. NHRA finally allowed the three speed which should have been legal all along.
