Yeah that's exactly what I was thinking. Maybe I could loan the Mattingly's my jerico so they can get the stick combo where it needs to be too

I think there is a bigger concern here. Did the racer in question get torn down? I believe, whether it be in STK or SS that any run over 1 second under should have the racer do at least a minimal teardown(ie.head, carb, pump down, scope, ect...); however a run that will get the entire combination, which by the way if you look at how many people have this specific one ther is probably millions vested, should be completely torndown(ie. Crank, rods, pistons, heads, etc...). If they don't have time during the race, seal the motor and teardown Monday. Not saying in this case that the motor is not legal; however if a hundred racers on Monday now have to add 100lbs or move one index down to compensate, I think they would like to know it was legit!
