we all know what. Good luck with your combo. You could always play the AHFS game and run it soft for a year and ask for HP off. BP |

Re: Attention Nova 350/255 stock combo.
[QUOTE=Dan Fahey;597875]
There are other technologies that have made our cars quicker. Such as better lubricants, composition of engine materials, tighter tolerances, treatments on bearings, cams and springs and of course Lifters, rings and pistons. There are better tires, VHT coated tracks for a heck of a lot better launch. Got Converter and Transmission technology putting power down more effectively. Dan I don't normally agree with you but this part you hit the nail on the head. And even though I've never been a big fan of the AHFS these are the reasons I would love to see it get tweaked so it reflects all the above. BP |

Re: Attention Nova 350/255 stock combo.
[QUOTE=Dan Fahey;597891]George makes a good point.
Some of the HP factoring is not balanced. Bob Benders 1969 Chevy Wagon had HP cut to 261 HP My 1969 Impala Sport is rated at 275 hp. We both have the 350/255 engine Dan, forgive me if I overlooked it, but when was the last time you ran an NHRA event with your 69 Impala? what did it run? and what was the index? I'm just trying to compare to see if you have gone too fast to put a letter requesting hp? or you just haven't been out yet. The Dutch is in a couple weeks.

I'm confused........you gotta Chevy Duane[/QUOTE Yes Glenn, I'm driving a Chevy, a car that is not capable of running 1.2 under. But its not sitting in Billys garage while I complain about other people getting hp back. That was the point.
