I was just wondering if anyone on here was keeping an eye on this. This is very interesting to see exactly what a stock TC will do. They are allowed very few changes to the stock engine. Check out the pic of him launching in the last link.

I guess I'm going to need some hand-holding on this one. I click the links and they take me to the turboford board. I can't seem to find any pics from there, am I missing something?

NHRA stock is very strict in their build/blueprint specs. I built my wifes 85 with my race engine machine shop who is a 30yr. super stock racer. It allows overbore of up to .070 all castings must have correct ID#s. On the 2.3 the piston can stick up out of the bore .007 all ports must remain untouched. The head can be CCd to equalize but one chamber must remain untouched. Valve seats and angles are wide open but valves must remain stock size and equal or greater wieght. Head and deck surfaces can be done, intakes must remain untouched. Camshafts must remain stock lift only, duration and ramp/overlap is open. This is a condensed version, I have 3 full pages from the NHRA on this engine alone.
