The earlier heads are hard to find just like the SBC so these are the superceded heads. Nothing to look at here.

That is not what this is about, at all. No new heads were added. Some were taken away that shouldn't have been there to begin with though.

He was never for a lack of posts before. I am sure he will weigh in.....well maybe.

Tear downs did no good because the tech dept protected one certain racer and allowed heads, pistons and other parts which were never produced or installed by the factory. We're talking about Stock where factory produced and approved components are mandated to be used by all competitors. When bogus specs get onto a TI form the person responsible should be held accountable. Keep digging and you'll be surprised. Not everyone will spend the time to look into this because they think it doesn't affect them because it's not the brand they race but how do we know if this is an isolated case? The more you look the more surprised you'd be. Even tech officials have been told to look the other way. Heads are not rare, like mentioned that's not what this is about. There's only nothing to look at here if you choose to look the other way.

Yeah I don't get it! This guy goes 1.20 under gets the combo instant horsepower, gets torn down and found to be bogus and all the sudden were changing the blueprint specs and the horsepower stands. This has got to be the biggest crock of sheet I've seen in a while!

I agree......Oh and thanks for being a stand up guy Coot. We appreciate it. Hopefully soon I'll get to meet you in person, lol

I'm getting ready to jump in this class with both feet. Testing the car in a couple weeks and I'm already fighting HP. Hopefully not from a bogus car. With being Ford people and researching this combination for years. I was a little confused about all the different head numbers, figured it out though. Hopefully NHRA has!!

Someone had to approve this bogus stuff! I'm sure there must be someone at NHRA who can provide an answer to this. Who instructed the tech officials to allow this and how long has this been going on? If the TI form has been updated and the bogus heads, pistons ect. have been removed shouldn't the HP factor be put back to whatever it was before these parts were used?

Basic point is that Mr. Carson is cheating.......... Car did NOT come from Ford with Carbon doors or Lexan windows or heads off a new 5.2 coyote motor from the GT350 motor. Believe me, we have 1 of 3!!! that were produced in 2013(claimed as a correct 14 now). The only white one produced. Actually 1 of 2 because one black one is still at Ford. But when you have an unlimited budget you can get anything approved for the right amount of money. Sad part is now my brother has 18hp put on his combo that NHRA refuses to remove. Bogus engine that should not pass tech got the HP. Any of us do that and we will get expelled from NHRA. Money makes the squeaky wheel quiet..............

Jamie,

The car does NOT have carbon fiber doors, it does have Poly Carbonate windows which have been approved for 7 years. None of that matters because the car weighs what it has to weigh.

Carson's car has the factory Ford '14 head castings and you are right the pistons do not work with them. But if you use a .015" thicker head gasket and put the pistons .010" deeper in the hole they do work. Just use the factory deck height.

Listen if your brother would have kept his word and not hit the index we would have stayed away from it. But now we are trying to make the car a natural D car which we will do by years end.

We were protested last year at Indy, torn down to the crankshaft. So Division 3, 2, and 1 have all taken this car apart. If you want to call the NHRA tech guys cheaters you can do that, we will not. Tell your brother to learn to keep his word and none of this would have happened.

Jim
